I Let It Slip Away Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]Well, if you look at [Am]me,
you'll [Em]be looking at a [C]fool
With a [F]heartache that just
[G]grows every [C]day, yeah
[F]For I was too blind to [C]see
her love was [Am]mine
Once [C]I had it, but I[F] let it slip aw[C]ay
And if you talk to [Am]me,
you'll be [Em]talking [C]to a fool
[F]With a lifetime of [G]tears yet [C]to pay
[F]Cause now that love stands out
[C]of reach of [Am]his hands
Once [C]I had, but I[F] let it slip aw[C]ay
[F]Now, I tell my heart, oh,
[C]you were better off
An[F]d you really didn't need her anyway
[C]Tha[F]t's a good t[Dm]ry,
[F]but it's [C]still just a [Am]lie,
because [D]I need them more e[G]very day.
[C]Now, I live my [Am]life with
the [Em]wisdom of [C]a fool
from [F]a lesson that I [G]learned the hard [C]way.
[F]At such a cost, oh,[C] I'd leave wha[Am]t I lost
Once [C]I had it, and I[F]'d let it slip a[C]way
Yes, I hadn't,
but [F]I'd let him slip away.

[Outro 1]
[G][C]
