Intro:

E /// | B/D# / | B7 / | E /// | B/D# / | B7 / |


Verse 1:
          E
When it feels like surgery
         B/D#
And it burns like third degree
     C#m   B     A
And you wonder "what is it worth?"
          E
When your inside's breaking in
         B/D#
And you feel that ache again
     C#m   B       A
And you wonder "What’s giving birth?"

Pre-chorus:
A           E         B
 If you could let the pain of the past go

Of your soul
A        E      B
 None of this is in your control


Chorus:
         E
If you could only let your guard down
          G#m
You could learn to trust me somehow
  C#m      B      A
I swear, that I won’t let you go
         E
If you could only let go your doubts
          G#m
If you could just believe in me now
  C#m      B      A
I swear, that I won’t let you go
         E  B/D#  B7   E  B/D#  B7
I won’t let you go


Verse 2:
         E
When your fear is currency
         B
And you feel that urgency
      C#m       B      A
You want peace but there’s war in your head
          E
Maybe that’s where life is born
      B
When our facades are torn
      C#m      B    A
Pain gives birth to the promise ahead


Pre-chorus:
A           E         B
 If you could let the pain of the past go

Of your soul
A        E      B
 None of this is in your control


Chorus:
         E
If you could only let your guard down
          G#m
You could learn to trust me somehow
  C#m      B      A
I swear, that I won’t let you go
         E
If you could only let go your doubts
          G#m
If you could just believe in me now
  C#m      B      A
I swear, that I won’t let you go
         F#m  B
I won’t let you go


Ad-lib:
G#m            A
  I’ll always be by your side


Chorus:
         E
If you could only let your guard down
          B/D#
You could learn to trust me somehow
  C#m      B      A
I swear, that I won’t let you go
         E
If you could only let go your doubts
          B/D#
If you could just believe in me now
  C#m      B      A
I swear, that I won’t let you go
         E          G#m
I won’t let you go (I won't let you go)
         C#m   B      A
I won’t let you go (I won't let you go)


Coda:
   E
There ain’t no darkness strong enough
      G#m
That could tear you out from my heart
   C#m           B
There ain’t no strength that’s strong enough
      A
That could tear this love apart

   E
There ain’t no darkness strong enough
      G#m
That could tear you out from my heart
   C#m           B
There ain’t no strength that’s strong enough
      A
That could tear this love apart
           E  G#m
Never gonna let you go
           C#m  B  A
Never gonna let you go
          E  B/D#  B7   E  B/D#  B7  E
