Tunning: 1/2 step down
[G]Spent the night with a friend of mine, and a [C]handle of good [G]wiskey
[G]We picked guitars and talked about how the [C]glory days went m[G]issin'
[C]It didn't take to long to find the [G]truth [D/F#]inside that [Em]bottle
[C]Cast a sea, so [G]long ago, was a [D]message from my [G]father
You keep your [C]heart above your head, and your eyes wide [G]open
So this [G]world can't find a way to leave you [D]cold
And know you're [Em]not the only [D/F#]ship out on the [Em-D/F#-G]ocean
(walk up to) C D
Save your strength for things that you can change
[C]Forgive the one's you [D]can't
N.C.
You gotta let it go
[G]Looking back now on my life I [C]can't say I regre[G]t it
[G]And all the places I ended up, not the [C]way Ma woulda [G]had it
[C]But you only get once chance in life to l[G]ea[-]ve[D/F#] your[-] m[Em]ark upon it
So when that [C]pony he comes [G]riding by you better [D]set your sweet ass [G]on it
(This is the main riff w/ one harmony)
You keep your [C]heart above your head, and your eyes wide [G]open
So this [G]world can't find a way to leave you [D]cold
And know you're [Em]not the only [D/F#]ship out on the [Em-D/F#-G]ocean
(walk up to) C D
Save your strength for things that you can change
[C]Forgive the one's you [D]can't
N.C.
You gotta let it go
(Here's a little more into the fingerpicking)
(Fingerpicking Progression)
Like a sweet sunset in Georgia let it go
and like the fear that grabs ahold ya let it go
let it go
let it go
You keep your[C] heart above your head, and your eyes wide[G] open
So this [G]world can't find a way to leave you [D]cold
And know you're [Em]not the only [D/F#]ship out on the [Em-D/F#-G]ocean
(walk up to) C D
Save your strength for things that you can change
[C]Forgive the one's you [D]can't
N.C.
You gotta let it go
