Hard To Say Goodbye By Jim Kenyon
Verse 1
[Am] You can’t chain down the whistling wind
[C] You can’t stop the changing of ocean tides
You [F] can’t hold onto fleeting shadows
And you [G]can’t touch stars [F]up in the [C]sky
.
Verse 2
.
[Am] You can’t stop a river from flowing on
[C] You can’t grab lightning up in the sky
You [F] can’t rush the night or morning dawn
And you [G] can’t stop the years from [F] rolling [C] by
.
Chorus
.
[F] I know that she’ll be leaving soon
I can[C] see her dreams in her eyes
[F] Gotta let her go, I gotta let her go,
oh I [G]never have [F]liked to say good[C]bye
.
Verse 3
.
[Am] You can’t drink wine from an empty glass
[C] You can’t count grains of sand on a beach
You [F] can’t go forward ‘til you let go the past
And you[G] can’t hold back a heart that [F]yearns to be [C]free
.
Chorus
.
[F] I know that she’ll be leaving soon
I can[C] see her dreams in her eyes
[F] Gotta let her go, I gotta let her go,
oh I [G]never thought I’d [F]have to say good[C]bye
.
Verse 4
.
[Am] you can’t cage a bird that’s meant to fly
[C] you know you can’t turn water into wine
You [F] can't stop a dreamer reaching for the sky
And you [G] can’t change a soul [F] destined to [C] shine
Chorus
.
[F] I know that she’ll be leaving soon
I can[C] see her dreams in her eyes
[F] Gotta let her go, I gotta let her go,
oh It's[G] so damn hard to [F]say good[C]bye
Outgo
.
[G] it’s so damn hard to [F]say good[C]bye
[G] it’s so damn hard to [F]say good[C]bye
[G] it’s so damn hard to [F]say good[C]bye
