CG
 She sits alone by a lamppost
 FC
 trying to find a thought that's escaped her mind
 CG
 She says Dad's the one I love the most
 FC
 but Stipe's not far behind
 C
 She lets me in
 G
 only tell me where's she's been
 FC
 when she's had too much to drink
 CG
 I say that I don't care I just run my hands
 F
through her dark hair and I pray to God
 C
you gotta help me fly away

 FC
And just let her cry if the tears fall down like rain
 FAmG
Let her sing if it eases all her pain
 FC
Let her go. Let her walk right out on me
 G
And if the sun comes up tomorrow
 FC
Let her be, let her be.

 C
 This morning I woke up alone
 G
 found a note by the phone
 FC
 saying maybe I'll be back some day
 C
 I wanted to look for you
 G
You walked in I didn't know just what to do
 FC
so I sat back down had a beer and felt sorry for myself.

 FC
Saying let her cry if the tears fall down like rain
 FAmG
Let her sing if it eases all her pain
 FC
Let her go. Let her walk right out on me
 G
And if the sun comes up tomorrow
 FC
Let her be, let her be.

 C
 Last nite I tried to leave
 G
 She cried so much I just could not believe
 FC
 she was the same girl I fell in love with long ago
 C
 She went in the back to get high
 G
 I sat down on my couch and cried
 F
yelling oh mama please help me
 C
won't you hold my hand.

 FC
And let her cry if the tears fall down like rain
 FAmG
Let her sing if it eases all her pain
 FC
Let her go. Let her walk right out on me
 G
And if the sun comes up tomorrow
 C
Let her be
 FC
Let her cry if the tears fall down like rain
 FAmG
Let her sing if it eases all her pain
 FC
Let her go. Let her walk right out on me
 G
And if the sun comes up tomorrow
 FC
Let her be, let her be.

I find it easier to play when the chords are layed out over the entire song, and not simply once at the top of the first verse. This progression isn't too hard,but some other progressions get lengthy and are hard to remember.

This version does not show where the chords should be played although the chords are pretty accurate

Instead of using C, use C(add9), it sounds alot better.
