[INTRO]
(1/2 of chorus) : GCG D C G [D] [G]
[CHORUS]
Let it [G]go my love my [C]trues[G]t,
Let it s[D/E]ail on silver wings
Life’s a twinkli[C]ng that’s for certain, [G]
But it’s such[D] a fine thing
There’s a gather[G]ing of spirits [C] [G]
There’s a festiv[D]al of friends
And we’ll take up [C]where we left off [G]
When we all meet [D]again. [G]
[VERSE 1]
I can’t explain it[C] . I couldn’t [G]if I tried
How the only thi[C]ngs we carry [G]
Are the things[D] we hold inside
Like a day in out the open, [C]
like the love [G]we won't forget
Like the laughter[C] that we started [G]
And hasn’[D]t died down yet
[CHORUS]
Let it [G]go my love my [C]trues[G]t,
Let it s[D/E]ail on silver wings
Life’s a twinkli[C]ng that’s for certain, [G]
But it’s such[D] a fine thing
There’s a gather[G]ing of spirits [C] [G]
There’s a festiv[D]al of friends
And we’ll take up [C]where we left off [G]
When we all meet [D]again. [G]
[VERSE 1]
Oh yah, now didn’t we, a[C]nd don’t we make it s[G]hine
Aren’t we standing[C] in the centre of [G]
[D]Something rare and fine
Some glow like embers [C]
or lig[G]ht thru coloured glass
Some give i[C]t all in one great [G]flame
Throwing kisses as t[D]hey pass
[CHORUS]
Let it [G]go my love my [C]trues[G]t,
Let it s[D/E]ail on silver wings
Life’s a twinkli[C]ng that’s for certain, [G]
But it’s such[D] a fine thing
There’s a gather[G]ing of spirits [C] [G]
There’s a festiv[D]al of friends
And we’ll take up [C]where we left off [G]
When we all meet [D]again. [G]
[INSTRUMENTAL]
[VERSE 3]
Just east of Eden, Bu[C]t there’s heaven in our mi[G]dst
And we’re never real[C]ly all that far [G]
From those [D]we love and miss
Wade out in the water [C]
There’s a glory [G]all around
The wisest[C] say there’s a thousand ways [G]
To knee[D]l and kiss the ground
[CHORUS]
Let it [G]go my love my [C]trues[G]t,
Let it s[D/E]ail on silver wings
Life’s a twinkli[C]ng that’s for certain, [G]
But it’s such[D] a fine thing
There’s a gather[G]ing of spirits [C] [G]
There’s a festiv[D]al of friends
And we’ll take up [C]where we left off [G]
