Chords in this song
Strum
D-DU-UDU
Sweeping up plaster
Mopping the floor
Washing the windows
Cleaning the closets
Closing the door
Filling the cracks
Out in the hall
Scraping the paint
Off of the wall
Changing the lock
Turning the key
Letting you go
Away from me
Knowing its better
Here in my head
Doing the laundry
Washing the dishes
Making the bed
Nothing to fight
Nothing to choose
Maybe its good
Learning to lose
Maybe Ill shine
Finally free
Letting you go
Away from me
If I were smart
If I were strong
If I could just
Say I was wrong
Say it was me
Say I could move
Make you believe
These things improve
Could I forget
All of the cracks
Deep in the ground
Under our tracks
And if I could
Then would you see
Or would you go away
Would you go away
Facing the facts
Watching the clock
Maybe youll change
Just down the block
And if you did
Where would I be?
Letting you go
Away from me
