Let Him Fly Chords by Patty Griffin

[Start]

[Intro]

[Verse]
D G          D                  
■ ■ Ain't no talkin' to this man
         D                
Ain't no pretty other side
         G                                          
Ain't no way to understand the stupid words of pride
                 D             G                     
It would take an acrobat and I already tried all that
   A               D       G D
So ■ I'm gonna let him fly ■ ■
           D                  
Things can move at such a pace
    D                             
The second hand just waved goodbye
G                                     
And though the light has left his face
              G                       
But you can't recall just where or why
A                                
So there was really nothing to it
            G                        A
I just went and cut right through it ■
           D             G       D        
I said I'm gonna let him fly ooh yeah yeah


[Chorus]
G                     A        
There's no mercy in a live wire
Bm                       
No rest at all in freedom
       G              Em7  
Of the choices we are given
        Bm                  Bm7
It's no choice at all ohhuh ■  
G                   Asus4 D
The proof is in the fire  ■
                    Bm    Bm7  Gbm7      Em7
You touch before it moves away ■    yeah ■  
                                          A             
But you must always know how long to stay and when to go


[Verse]
    D                                 
And there ain't no talkin' to this man
                     D    
He's been tryna tell me so
     G                   
Took awhile to understand
           Bm                
The beauty of just letting go


[Chorus]
                        G                     Em7       A   
'cause it would take an acrobat and I already tried all that
              D       G
I'm gonna let him fly ■
D G                   D   G   D  G
■ ■ I'm gonna let him fly fly oh ■
              D       G   D 
I'm gonna let him fly fly oh
G             Dsus4 D  
I'm gonna let him   fly
