Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[A]I p[D]acked a[G]ll[D][G][D][G][D][G][Bm]
my troubles in [A]an overnight bag
And I [G]drove them [A]up to [G]Maine
[Bm]Sat on a cliff by the [A]edge of the ocean
and I [G]laid them [A]out again
[G]Yeah, I sat and laid them all out [D]again
But [Bm]there they sat,
kind of [A]strange and flat
The same old [G]troubles
they had [A]been all along
[G]And as I sta[Bm]red at them,
they stared [A]back at me
I knew [G]I had this [A]thing all wrong
[G]I had this crazy thing all w[D]rong[G]
[D]Cause it's only when you [Bm]let g[D]o
[G]Only when you [D]open [Bm]up your heart
[D]That the mean[G]ing [D]comes
[G]rolling [Em]slowly [G]in
Like a night[D]fall[G][D][G]
Look[Bm]ing for a game to [A]ease my pain
I [G]closed my bed[A]room [G]door
And [Bm]altered my perception of [A]reality
And I [G]waited for [A]peace once more
[G]I sat and I waited for peace once m[D]ore
But [Bm]peace it did not come [A]that night
Just a [Bm]hollow and [A]silent [G]stare
And I [Bm]knew right then
I had [A]it wrong yet again
I would [G]find no com[A]fort there
[G]No, I would find no comfort [D]there[G]
[D]It's only [G]when you [D]let [G]it [Bm]go[D]
[G]Only when you [D]open [G]up your heart
[D]That the meaning[G] com[D]es
[G]rolling slowly in
Like a nightfall
[D]It'[G]s o[D]nly w[G]hen you let it al[D]l go[G][D]
[G]Only when you [D]open [Bm]up yo[G]ur heart[D]
That [G]the meaning [D]comes [G]rolling slowly in
Like a knife [D]fall[Bm][G][D]
[Bm]I co[G]uld [Bm]be a tragic
victim of circum[A]stance
Lord [G]knows that [A]I know [G]how
The [Bm]pain, it could kill me if I [A]get a chance
I [G]know all [A]about that now
[G]I know too much about that n[D]ow[G][A]
[D]It's only when you [G]let [Bm]go[G][D]
[G]Only when you [D]open [G]up [Bm]your heart[G]
[D]That the meaning comes [G]rolling slowly in,
like a [D]night[G]fall[A]
[D]It's only whe[G]n you let[D] it [G]all go[D]
[G]Only [Bm]when [G]you open[D] up yo[Bm]ur heart
[D]That the meaning comes [G]rolling slowly in,
like a night[D]fall
[G]Like [D]a n[G]ightfall,[D][G]
[D]Like [G]a nig[Bm]htfall.[A][G][A][D][G][D]
[G][D][G][D][G][D][G][D][G][D][G]
[D]It's [G]only when you let[D] go,[G][D]
[G]only when you [D]open [G]up your heart
[D]That [G]the meaning of love [D]is [G]slowly
[D]Lik[G]e a kni[D]fe[Bm][D][G][D]
[G]Like a [D]knife[G][A][D]
You
