D G
You told me yourself you were a writer
A
You followed every line and theme right through
D G
I never suspected I was a one-nighter
A
But there was this line, I''m gonna keep it for you
CHORUS:
D
''Cause you let it go
G
You let that line go, you let it go
A
And you call yourself a writer
D
You let it go
G
You let that line go, you let it go
A
I''m gonna keep it for you
D G
Oh, some people think you''re quite amazing
A
They heard you do your songs on radio
D G
But somewhere in that sweet there''s bitter tasting
A
''Cause down deep inside, you know that somebody knows
CHORUS:
D
You let it go
G
You let that line go, you let it go
A
And you call yourself a writer
D
You let it go
G
You let that line go, you let it go
A
I''m gonna keep it for you
D
I''m gonna play it out loud
I''m gonna do it one more time
G
I''m gonna do it my show
A
I want the world to know
D
Oh, it just takes one night to make a reputation
G A
Oh, it just takes one lie to break a heart
D
And it just takes one line to make a song sing
G
But you let me go
D
I want the world to know, you let it go
INSTRUMENTAL: G A D G A
D G
So, let me pose this question while you''re posing
A
Let me wonder why, that''s what I do
D G
I saw you open your eyes while mine were closing
A
Did you take it all down from your point of view
CHORUS:
D
Or did you let it go
G
You let that line go, you let it go
A
And you call yourself a writer
D
You let it go
G
You let that line go, you let it go
A
I''m gonna keep it for you
D
I''m gonna play it out loud
I''m gonna do it one more time
G A
I''m gonna do it my show
I want the world to know
D
That it just takes one night to make a reputation
G A
It just takes one lie to break a heart
D
And it just takes one line to make a song sing
G
You let me go
D
And I want the world to know, you let it go
