Marie Hines - Long Way To Letting Go Chords

Introduction: Am F C G (x2)

(Verse)
Am
Funny how the little things
    F
Can stake a claim in memory
    C                            G
And cheat time to last a hundred years

Am
I swore that I'd be strong enough
   F
To drop my heart and pick it up
    C                               G
And make the great escape without a tear
Am       F
I'm so naive


(Chorus)
    F Am Em
And I ?? hold my breath a little too long
    F Am       G
And you ? were quick to carry on
    F Am  Em
And I'm ? learning in the afterglow
       Dm
It's a long way
  F                   Am
A long way to letting go

(Interlude) Am F C G (4 beats each)

(Verse)
Am
Waiting on eventually
      F
Where you'll become my history
    C                         G
And I'll begin to rebuild the walls


    Am
And I'll forget to mention you
   F
Or wish that you were lonely too
C                        G
Never ache, missing your calls
Am       F
I'm so naive


(Chorus)
    F Am Em
And I ?? hold my breath a little too long
    F Am       G
And you ? were quick to carry on
    F Am  Em
And I'm ? learning in the afterglow
       Dm
It's a long way
  F                   Am
A long way to letting go

                    F
Was looking easier ideally
      Am                        C
And I falter at my hesitation's end

F                            Dm
Close my eyes as I begin the countdown,
                               Am
Reach for breath, I'm counting down
                  E
But I hesitate at ten.

(Chorus)
    F Am Em
And I ?? hold my breath a little too long
    F Am       G
And you ? were quick to carry on
    F Am  Em
And I'm ? learning in the afterglow
       Dm
It's a long way
  F
A long way to letting go
Am  Em  F   G         F Am Em
  Ooo?   Ooo? letting go? ooo
Dm   F
  hmmm ?
