G                      D   
	She sits alone by a lampo-ost   
	C9                                          G    
	Trying to find a thought that's escaped her mind   
	G                               D   
	She says Dads the one I love the most   
	C9                  G   
	But Stipe's not far behind   

	G			D   
	She never lets me in	only tells me where she's been   
	C9                         G   
	when she's had to much to drink   
	G                                D   
	I say that I don't care   I just run my hands through her dark hair   
	C9                                         G   
	then I pray to God, "You gotta help me fly away"   (and just)   



  
	        C9             G   
	let her cry	if the tears fall down like rain   
	        C9             Em      Am7    D   
	let her sing	If it eases all her pain   
	        C9              G   
	let her go	let her walk right out on me   
          	   D   
	and if the sun comes up tomorrow,    
                C9            G   
	let her be,   let her be

                                         D 
	This morning I woke up alone    found a note standing by the phone   
                  C9.                G 
	saying "maybe, maybe I'll be back someday"  
  
	I wanted to look for you   
                    D 
	you walked in, I didn't know just what I should do 
               C9                                 G   
	So, I sat back down, had a beer and felt sorry for myself   


                 C9              G   
	let her cry	if the tears fall down like rain   
	        C9            Em      Am7    D   
	let her sing	If it eases all her pain   
	        C9              G   
	let her go	let her walk right out on me   
          	   D   
	and if the sun comes up tomorrow,    
                C9             G   
	let her be,   let her be    

            

         G      D    C9    G 

      

	 


	last night I tried to leave 
         D   
	cried so much I could not beleive   
         C9                                       G 
	she was the same girl I fell in love with long ago  
  
	she went in the back to get high  
        D  
	I sat down on my couch and cried yelling  
         C9                               G  
	"Whoa Lord whoa, please help me.  Won't you hold my hand"   


                 C9              G   
	let her cry	if the tears fall down like rain   
	        C9             Em      Am7    D   
	let her sing	If it eases all her pain   
	        C9              G   
	let her go	let her walk right out on me   
          	   D   
	and if the sun comes up tomorrow,    
                C9            G   
	let her be,   let her be
