[Intro]
B F# E
She sits alone by a lamppost,
B
Trying to find a thought that's escaped her mind.
F# E
She says there's the one I love the most,
B
His type's not far behind.
[Verse]
B F#
She never lets me in,
F# E
Only tells me where she's been,
B
when she's had too much to drink.
I say that I don't care,
F#
I just run my hands through her dark hair.
E B
Then I pray to God, "You gotta help me fly away".
And just,
[Chorus]
E B
Let her cry, if the tears fall down like rain.
E G#m F#
Let her sing, if it eases all her pain.
E B
Let her go, let her walk right out on me.
F#
And if the sun comes up tomorrow,
E B
Let her be, let her be.
[Solo 1]
B F# E B
[Verse]
B F#
This morning I woke up alone,
E
Found a note standing by the phone,
B
Saying, "Maybe, Maybe I'll be back someday".
I wanted to look for you.
F#
You walked in, I didn't know just what I should do.
E B
So, I sat back down, had a beer and felt sorry for myself.
Saying,
[Chorus]
E B
Let her cry, if the tears fall down like rain.
E G#m F#
Let her sing, if it eases all her pain.
E B
Let her go, let her walk right out on me.
F#
And if the sun comes up tomorrow,
E B
Let her be, let her be.
[Solo]
B F# E B 2x
[Chorus]
E B
Let her cry, if the tears fall down like rain.
E G#m F#
Let her sing, if it eases all her pain.
E B
Let her go, let her walk right out on me.
F#~
And if the sun comes up tomorrow,
E~ B
Let her be, oooh
[Interlude]
B F# E B
[Verse]
B
Last night I tried to leave.
F#
Cried so much I could not believe,
E B
She was the same girl I fell in love with long ago.
B
She went in the back to get high.
F#
I sat down on my couch and cried, yelling,
E B
"Woman whoa, Lord, whoa, please help me.
Won't you hold my hand"
[Chorus]
E B
Let her cry, if the tears fall down like rain.
E G#m F#
Let her sing, if it eases all her pain.
E B
Let her go, let her walk right out on me.
F#
And if the sun comes up tomorrow,
E
Let her be.
[Chorus]
E B
Let her cry, if the tears fall down like rain.
E G#m F#
Let her sing, if it eases all her pain.
E B
Let her go, let her walk right out on me.
F#~
And if the sun comes up tomorrow,
E~ B~
Let her be, oh, let her be
