capo 1 — sounds a semitone higher

Verse 1

The love we had was so nice 
I feel so terribly sorry
And now I'm paying the price 
I'm just so terribly sorry
Why does it hurt me so bad 
I only learn when I'm burning 
And now it's making me sad 
'Cause I know you're not returning so

Chorus

Why don't you go
Why don't you go
If you have to live your life
I'll let you go
I'll let you go
If you have to live your life

Verse 2

Look how far we have come 
It all seems so unnecessary
Before the pain there was fun 
And there was nothing to worry
Some things are hard to understand 
The reasons for your departure 
With no destination no plan 
But I know if you stayed it'd be harder, all right now:

Chorus

Why don't you go
Why don't you go
If you have to live your life
I'll let you go
I'll let you go
If you have to live your life

Bridge

Dogs bark louder
Trees grow stronger
When there's peace at mind, oh
The ocean waters will be calmer now

Instrumental

    
    

Verse 3

Just look how far we have come 
I feel so terribly sorry 
And I put it down on a song 
So I can erase the memories, everybody now:

Chorus

Why don't you go
Why don't you go
If you have to live your life
I'll let you go
I'll let you go
If you have to live your life
Why don't you go
Why don't you go
If you have to live your life
I'll let you go
I'll let you go
If you have to live your life

Outro

The ocean waters will be calmer now
