[Intro]
D A G
She sits alone by a lamppost,
D
Trying to find a thought that's escaped her mind.
A G
She says there's the one I love the most,
D
His type's not far behind.
[Verse]
D A
She never lets me in,
A G
Only tells me where she's been,
D
when she's had too much to drink.
I say that I don't care,
A
I just run my hands through her dark hair.
G D
Then I pray to God, "You gotta help me fly away".
And just,
[Chorus]
G D
Let her cry, if the tears fall down like rain.
G Bm A
Let her sing, if it eases all her pain.
G D
Let her go, let her walk right out on me.
A
And if the sun comes up tomorrow,
G D
Let her be, let her be.
[Solo 1]
D A G D
[Verse]
D A
This morning I woke up alone,
G
Found a note standing by the phone,
D
Saying, "Maybe, Maybe I'll be back someday".
I wanted to look for you.
A
You walked in, I didn't know just what I should do.
G D
So, I sat back down, had a beer and felt sorry for myself.
Saying,
[Chorus]
G D
Let her cry, if the tears fall down like rain.
G Bm A
Let her sing, if it eases all her pain.
G D
Let her go, let her walk right out on me.
A
And if the sun comes up tomorrow,
G D
Let her be, let her be.
[Solo]
D A G D 2x
[Chorus]
G D
Let her cry, if the tears fall down like rain.

Let her sing, if it eases all her pain.
G D
Let her go, let her walk right out on me.

And if the sun comes up tomorrow,
G~ D
Let her be, oooh
[Interlude]
D A G D
[Verse]
D
Last night I tried to leave.
A
Cried so much I could not believe,
G D
She was the same girl I fell in love with long ago.
D
She went in the back to get high.
A
I sat down on my couch and cried, yelling,
G D
"Woman whoa, Lord, whoa, please help me.
Won't you hold my hand"
[Chorus]
G D
Let her cry, if the tears fall down like rain.
G Bm A
Let her sing, if it eases all her pain.
G D
Let her go, let her walk right out on me.
A
And if the sun comes up tomorrow,
G
Let her be.
[Chorus]
G D
Let her cry, if the tears fall down like rain.
G Bm A
Let her sing, if it eases all her pain.
G D
Let her go, let her walk right out on me.
A~
And if the sun comes up tomorrow,
G~ D~
Let her be, oh, let her be
