[Verse]
C 
Time to let it go 
Em 
It won't let go of me 
G 
Hanging by a thread 
D 
Cutting the cord and then falling back into the 
C 
Black 'cause if I don't 
Em 
If I wait 'til it feels right 
          G 
I'll be waiting my whole life 
D 
Closing my eyes, remember how we were like
[Chorus]
C 
Gold, when you see me 
Em 
Hi, if you need me 
G                        D 
Babe, that's the way it was 
  
That's the history 
C                     Em 
Blue, how we used to roar 
              G 
Like an open fire

That's the way it was 
  
But that's history

C 
I have a memory 
        Em 
You're visiting me at night 
 G 
Climbing in my bed 
D 
You were so quiet that you never woke me 
C 
I love the way you could 
Em 
See the good in everything 
G 
But, do we fuel the fire? 
 D 
Closing my eyes, remember how we were like
[Chorus]

That's the way it was 
  
But that's history
[Verse]
C 
Started with a word 
Em 
Now, look at where we are

Everything we've done 
D 
It's there on our faces for anyone willing to

Well, I got a feeling 
D                 G 
Darling, it's possible 
                         C 
'Cause love's got no ceiling 
D               G 
Now, that it's just so strong 
                C 
And I got a feeling 
     D              G 
Like everything is possible 
    C           D 
I'm trying to change 
C
