Let her Cry - Hootie & The Blowfish
 cbarted by Rick Scbofield (rds@mv.mv.com

v1) G D
She sits alone by a lampo-ost
 CG
        Trying to find a thought that's escaped her mind
 GD
        She says there's the one I love the most
 CG
        his type's not far behind
 GD
        She never lets me in    only tells me where she's been
 CG
        when she's had to much to drink
 GD
        I say that I don't care   I just run my hands through her dark hair
 CG
        then I pray to God, "You gotta help me fly away"   (and just)
chorus:
 CG
        let her cry     if the tears fall down like rain
 CEmD
        let her sing    If it eases all her pain
 CG
        let her go      let her walk right out on me
 D
        and if the sun comes up tomorrow,
 CG
        let her be,   let her be

verse 2
This morning I woke up alone found a note standing by the phone
saying "maybe, maybe I'll be back someday"
I wanted to look for you
you walked in, I didn't know just what I should do
So, I sat back down, had a beer and felt sorry for myself
 cborus
 solo - 8 bars over verse
 cborus
verse 3
last night I tried to leave
cried so much I could not beleive
she was the same girl I fell in love with long ago
she went in the back to get high
I sat down on my couch and cried yelling
"Whoa Lord whoa, please help me. Won't you hold my hand"
 cborus - ends differently as....
 DG
        and if the sun comes up tomorrow, let her be
