[Verse 1]
F              Dm7
Close the book before
            C
it turns to tragedy
Bb                  Dm7
Tear the tree house down,
            C
give up the fantasy
Bb
Nothin' to regret,
                 F
since the day we met
C                     Dm
That we took a chance makin'
        Bb
our own world
Dm7          F                 C
   Perfectly imperfect like it had
   to be

[Pre-Chorus]
                  Bb
Who thought their own first kiss
                Dm
Would turn into two heartbreaks?
                F
'Cause, since we were young,
I swore
          C
I'd never walk away

[Chorus]
F
I love you so much that
                   C
I've gotta let you go
            Dm            C
It couldn't last forever
      Bb
And I hope you find better
F
I can't forget us,
                       C
can't pretend we ain't broken
       Dm             C
It was good together
       Bb                     Bbsus2
But now I've gotta let you go

[Verse 2]
F                  Dm
I'll always be in love with
        C
who you used to be
Am     Bb            F
  I'll save the photographs and
           C
  keep the memories
    F              Bb
The ribbon in your hair,
                    F
the secrets that we shared
                       C
The way that you would stare at
    A         Dm   Dm7
me across the room
   Bb               F
We laughed until we cried,
              C
it feels like yesterday
