Intro D  Bm7  F#m7  G 
 
 
A      D                     Bm7 
I'VE REHEARSED THIS DAY A THOUSAND TIMES  
        F#m7               G        A 
I'VE PLAYED THIS SCENE OUT IN MY MIND 
         D                   Bm7  
YOU SPREAD YOUR WINGS, YOU NEED TO FLY  
    F#m7                 G      A 
IT BREAKS MY HEART TO SAY GOODBYE 
        Em7                 A  
THESE ARMS OF MINE WANNA PULL YOU CLOSE  
      Em7                  A      D 
BUT I LOVE YOU ENOUGH TO LET YOU GO  
 
Bm7  Fm7  G  A   
 
 
 
MY MIND GOES BACK TO MEMORIES  
OF PONY RIDES UPON MY KNEE  
FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL, YOUR BRAND NEW BIKE  
AND FOOTBALL GAMES ON FRIDAY NIGHTS  
AND THROUGH THE YEARS I'VE WATCHED YOU GROW  
AND I LOVE YOU ENOUGH TO LET YOU GO  
 
 

[Refrão]
Bm                          F#m7 
DON'T LOOK BACK WHEN YOU DRIVE AWAY  
  G                          D   A/C# 
I DON'T WANNA CHANGE YOUR MIND 
  Bm                  F#m7 
I KNOW IN ALL YOUR EIGHTEEN YEARS  
Em                       G          D 
YOU'VE NEVER SEEN YOUR DADDY CRY  
 
 
 
SO MANY THINGS I WANNA SAY  
YOU'LL MEET NEW FRIENDS, YOU'LL BE OKAY  
I'LL PRAY FOR YOU OUT ON YOUR OWN  
BUT DON'T FORGET YOUR WAY BACK HOME  
AND THOUGH I MAY NOT LET IT SHOW  
I LOVE YOU ENOUGH TO LET YOU GO  
 
 
CHORUS  
 
 
        Em7                 A  
THESE ARMS OF MINE WANNA PULL YOU CLOSE  
      Em7                  A      D 
BUT I LOVE YOU ENOUGH TO LET YOU GO
