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

And if the sun comes up tomorrow,
A~ E~
Let her be, oh, let her be
