INTRO Dm 

VERSE 
Dm 
Left you, falling on the floor 
Dm 
Headed for the door 
Dm 
Went straight to Philadelphia 
Dm 
Oh no, what have I begun? 
Dm 
Called my mother, said I love her 
Dm 
Had another and another one 
Dm 
Questions, questions, suddenly suggestions 
Dm 
Where was anyone at the start of this thing? 
Dm 
Hold the cold up over your shoulder 
Dm 
All I needs a place to grieve 

Pre-Chorus 
Bb                              F 
Oh, it's for the best you didn't listen 
Am                            Dm            C 
It's for the best we get our distance (oh oh woah oh) 
Bb                            F 
It's for the best you didn't listen 
C 
It's for the best we get our distance 


F        Gm 
Oh lord, I feel alive 
Am                       Bb C 
I've gone and saved my soul 
   F                       Gm 
If all that you read is everything you believe 
        Am                      Bb  C 
Then let go, then let go, then let go 

VERSE 
Dm 
Now I'm over my head 
Dm 
Acting like I never started over again 
Dm 
I am the city I'm from 
Dm 
Always wanting more than just a word on my arm 
Dm 
Oh, I know, I can't believe 
Dm 
That I'd let it get to me 
Dm 
Good to know I won't become 
Dm 
Everything I'm afraid of 

Pre-Chorus 
Bb                              F 
Oh, it's for the best you didn't listen 
Am                            Dm            C 
It's for the best we get our distance (oh oh woah oh) 
Bb                            F 
It's for the best you didn't listen 
C 
It's for the best we get our distance 


F        Gm 
Oh lord, I feel alive 
Am                       Bb C 
I've gone and saved my soul 
   F                       Gm 
If all that you read is everything you believe 
        Am                      Bb  C 
Then let go, then let go, then let go 


BRIDGE 
Bb          C 
Mama don't cry 
        F               C     Dm 
I was once your little baby boy 
Dm 
So full of love and light 
Bb              C 
By the time I turned 25 
        F            C 
I was lost among the pavement 
Dm          C 
Lower than the basement 
    Bb                     C 
And I couldn't stand and smile 
C                F   C       Dm C 
I thought of taking my own life 
Bb               C 
But mama don't cry 
C           F             C 
I found songs among the tragic 
Dm              C 
Hung my hat on sadness 
Bb                             C 
Mom, I think they're trying to keep the grand romantic in me 
F             C           Dm  C 
Now that we got bottom lines 
    Bb                         C                          F 
But mom, I think I'm ready to free this grand romantic in me
