INTRO: G
G D
Last time I saw Laura, she was dancin' at the Mardi Gras
C G
Every man in New Orleans was sayin' ooh la la
D
The way she used to love me, make a dead man walk
C G
Tore me up just to see her move, and I loved to hear her talk
CHORUS:
D G
I had to let it go, I had to let it go
C G
Oh I mighta missed Heaven, but then you never know
D Em-C G D
I had to let it go, I had to let it go
G D
Last time I saw whiskey, it was callin' out my name
C G
I said whiskey you know I love you, but we'll never be the same
D
You used to take me with you thru the nights that had no end
C G
One night when you weren't lookin, Lord I snuck around the bend
CHORUS:
D G
I had to let it go, I had to let it go
C G
Well that ain't the road to Heaven, that's one thing I do know
D Em-C G D
I had to let it go, I had to let it go
G D
Last time I saw Reno, so down on my luck
C G
I sweet talked a cocktail waitress into loanin' me a buck
D
By the time the night was over and I handed back the dice
C G
Picked up my winnin's and I kissed that waitress twice
CHORUS:
D G
I had to let it go, I had to let it go
C G
I mighta rolled another seven, but then you never know
D Em-C G
I had to let it go, I had to let it go
D C D D7
Alright let it go now
G D
Life is just a puzzle inside a mystery
C G
Your idea of Heaven might look like hell to me
D
I just keep on movin' you see I never had a choice
C G
Singin' out these stories in this ragged down-home voice
CHORUS:
D G
I never let it go, I never let it go
C G
I might even get to Heaven, but then you never know
D Em-C G
I never let it go, I never let it go
D
Oh no no no
G D
I'm never letting go, I'm never letting go
G D Em
I might even get to Heaven but then you never know
C D
I never let it go, no no
OUTRO: G C (repeat out)
