Let Him Fly

CAPO: 2  

Intro: C       F      

                 C  
Ain't no talking to this man  

Ain't no pretty other side  
           F                                       
Ain't no way to understand  
                      Am 
The stupid words of pride  
                 G  
It would take an acrobat  
              F               G  
And I already tried all that  
                  C    F   C  
I'm gonna let him fly  


                   C 
Things can move at such a pace  
                      C 
The second hand just waved goodbye  
             F  
You know the light has left his face  
                      Am     
But you can't recall just where or why  
                    G  
So there was really nothing to it  
                F                    G  
I just went and cut right through it  
                         C   F     C  
I said I'm gonna let him fly, ooh, yeah, yeah  


           F               G  
There's no mercy in a live wire  
           Am  
No rest at all in freedom  
       F                         Dm     Am7  
Of the choices we are given, it's no choice at all  
            F               G  
Oh huh, the proof is in the fire  
    C                      Am     G Em       Dm  
You touch before it moves away___,      yeah  
                                              G  
But you must always know how long to stay and when to go  


                          C  
And there ain't no talking to this man  
                    C 
He's been trying to tell me so  
                  F            
It took awhile to understand  
                  Am  
The beauty of just letting go  
                        F         
'Cause it would take an acrobat  
          Dm            G  
I already tried all that  
                  C    F   C   
I'm gonna let him fly  
F                 C    F                C  
I'm gonna let him fly, fly, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh  
F                 C    F       C  
I'm gonna let him fly, fly, oh oh   
F                 C   
I'm gonna let him fly
