Intro: E  G#  A

Verse:
F#                         C#       B                        A          G#
   well you're the closest thing, i have, to bring up in a conversation
           B                         E
about love that didn't last, 
F#                   C#       B                        A                 G#
   but i could never call you mine,cause i could never call myself yours,
                          B     E
 and if we were really meant to be,
C#                            A             G#                B    
  well then we've just defied destiny, it's not that our love died 
   A                 B
it just never really bloomed


Chorus:
   E                  C#             G#
no i can't let go, no i can't let go of you
       B                                   E
you're holding me back without even trying to.
                    C#                   A
i can't let go, i can't move on from the past
         B
without lifting a finger you're holding me back.


Verse : E  G# A
F#                    C#        B                         A           G#
  And then we saw our past, diverge... and i guess i felt okay about it.
           B               E
Until you got with another man,
C#                      A
  and then I couldn't understand
                   G#               B           A           B
why it bothered me so, no we didn't die we just never had a chance to grow.


Repeat Chorus :

Bridge :
F#                                 G#
   and it might not make much sense

to you or any of my friends
      F#                                 B
but somehow still you affect the things i do
F#                                  G#
  and you can't lose what you never had
                               F#
i don't understand why i feel sad
                             A       B
everytime i see you out with someone new


E                    C#                G#              B 
  i can't let go, no i can't let go no i can't let go of you

Repeat Chorus :

E                    C#                  G#
  i can't let go, no i can't let go of you
        B                             E
you're holding me back without even trying to.
C#                                          A
  i can't let go, i can't move on from the past
 G#       E
