Version 1
               Em                  G                        D       Asus2
What Ravages of spirit conjured this temptuous rage.
   Em                  G                     Bm
Created you a monster, broken by the rule of love.
   Em                               G                    D     Asus2
And fate has led you through it, you do what you have to do.
   Em                               G                    A
And fate has led you through it, you do what you have to do.
  C                 G
I have the sense to recognize,
     D            Asus2          Em     D G
That I don't know how to let you go   (quick^)
Em                 G                 D        Asus2
Every moment marked with apparitions of your soul
   Em                    G                     Bm
I'm ever swiftly moving, trying to escape this desire.
  Em                           G                 D   Asus2
The yearning to be near you, I do what I have to do.
  Em                          G                  A
The yearning to be near you, I do what I have to do.
    C                G
And I have the sense to recognize,
     D            Asus2          Em     D G
That I don't know how to let you go  (quick^change)
D            Asus2          Em    D Em
I don't know how to let you go
Em               G           D
A glowing ember, burning hot, and burning slow.
Em                            G                        Bm
Deep within I'm shaken by the violence of existing for only you.
  Em                          G                 D   Asus2
I know I can't be with you, I do what I have to do.
  Em                          G                A
I know I can't be with you, I do what I have to do.
     C                 G
And I have the sense to recognize,
     D            Asus2          Em     D G
That I don't know how to let you go  (quick^)
 D           Asus2          Em   D Em
I don't know how to let you go
 D           Asus2              Em
I don't know how to let you go (slow-strum)
