[Verse]

                   E
When it feels like surgery
                  G#m
And it burns like third degree
        C#m    B          A
And you wonder what is it worth?
                  E
When your insides breaking in
                  G#m
And you feel that ache again
        C#m 
And you wonder
B             A
What's giving birth?

A                    E           B
If you could let the pain of the past go
        A
Of your soul
                E       B   
None of this is in your control


[Chorus]

                  E
If you could only let your guard down
                   G#m
You could learn to trust me somehow
  C#m           B             A
I swear, that I won't let you go
                  E
If you could only let go your doubts
                  G#m
If you could just believe in me now
  C#m           B             A
I swear, that I won't let you go
  B             E
I won’t let you go


[Bridge]

E   B   A   x2


[Verse]

                  E
When your fear is currency
                  G#m
And you feel that urgency
         C#m               B          A
You want peace but there's war in your head
                   E
Maybe that's where life is born
         G#m
When our façades are torn
           C#m          B       A
Pain gives birth to the promise ahead

A                    E           B
If you could let the pain of the past go
        A
Of your soul
                E       B   
None of this is in your control


[Chorus]

                  E
If you could only let your guard down
                   G#m
You could learn to trust me somehow
  C#m           B             A
I swear, that I won't let you go
                  E
If you could only let go your doubts
                  G#m
If you could just believe in me now
  C#m           B             A
I swear, that I won't let you go
  B             A      B
I won’t let you go
G#m         A          
I'll always be by your side

Yeah


[Chorus]

                  E
If you could only let your guard down
                   G#m
You could learn to trust me somehow
  C#m           B             A
I swear, that I won't let you go
                  E
If you could only let go your doubts
                  G#m
If you could just believe in me now
  C#m           B             A
I swear, that I won't let you go
  B             E
I won’t let you go

                 G#m
(I won’t let you go)
                C#m
I won’t let you go
   B             A
(I won’t let you go)


[Outro]

      E                                          G#m            
There ain't no darkness strong enough that could tear you out from my heart
      C#m                      B                                       A
There ain't no strength that's strong enough that could tear this love apart x2
                    E       G#m            
Never gonna let you go
 C#m        B               A
Never gonna let you go
     B             E
No I won’t let you go
