Chords
[G/B]Verse 1
[Cadd9]Suspended in the air
I hear myself [G]breathing
[Cadd9]Hanging by a thread
My heart is [G]barely beating
[Cadd9]I haven't fallen yet
But I feel it [G]comin'
Tell me [Cadd9]would it be too much to ask
If you [G]break it to me gently
That I'm [Cadd9]waking the next day
Without you [G]beside me
And who I [Cadd9]hold onto today
Tomorrow will [G]just be a memory
That [Cadd9]I will look back at all [G]of this
And [Cadd9]wonder why I stayed in here
[G]Just to watch you disappear
 
Pre-Chorus 1
So I [Am]breathe and [G/B]let you [Cadd9]go
How do I [Am]breathe and [G/B]let you [Cadd9]go?
 
Chorus 1
Before it's too [Cadd9]late
I'll take a step [G]away
I know one word would [Am]make me go
Rushing back to [G/B]you
So I'll just shut my [Cadd9]eyes
Forget that you were [G]mine
How do you go from [Am]making one your home
And then just [G/B]letting it all go
Let me [D]take it in
Be[Cadd9]Before [G/B]it [Am]sinks in
 
Verse 2
[Cadd9]Far beyond my reach
Is the future you [G]promised
Now what I [Cadd9]never even had
I have every [G]reason to miss
And I [Cadd9]don't know
Where I could find
the [G]strength to let you go
When the [Cadd9]only life I've come to know
[G]Packed his bags and left me [Am] [G/B] [Cadd9]alone
He found another [Am] [G/B] [Cadd9]home
 
Chorus 2
So before it's too [Cadd9]late
I'll take a step [G]away
I know one word would [Am]make me go
Rushing back to [G/B]you
And I'll just shut my [Cadd9]eyes
Forget that you were [G]mine
How do you go from [Am]making one your home
And then just [G/B]letting it all go
Let me [D]take it in
Be[Cadd9]Before [G/B]it [Am]sinks in
[Cadd9]Ohhhhh..[G]Ohhhhh...
[Cadd9]Go... [G]
[Cadd9]Ohhhhh..[G]Ohhhhh...
[Cadd9]Go...
 
Chorus 3
Before it's too [Cadd9]late
I'll take a step [G]away
I know one word would [Am]make me go
Rushing back to [G/B]you
I'll just shut my [Cadd9]eyes
Forget that you were [G]mine
How do you go from [Am]making one your home
And then just [G/B]letting it all go
Let me [D]take it in
Be[Cadd9]Before [G/B]it [Am]sinks in
