Shot Down - Josh Woodward
Capo 6
C G Am F
Why even try to justify leaving, why not just run away?
C G Am F
Why even wait and hesitate breathing, why would you want to stay?
C G Am G
Nothing you say could change the way he feels, nothing could save you now
D/F# F G
So just let this go
C G Am F
Every collapse that came to pass, faded out of your memory
C G Am F
All of the times he left you blind, jaded, down on your aching knees
C G Am G
Why don't you see the lies that he's telling, why don't you give it up?
D/F# F G
And just let him go
[Chorus]
Am G F C
Shot down, with no sound
Am F G
To the cold ground below
Dm Am G
And there's no one around, you won't be found
D/F# F
So hang your head and [let it fade away]
C G Am F
Your heart on a string, without a wing flying, no one to hold the kite
C G Am F
He let you go, but still you blow by, oblivious to the height
C G Am G
Check out behind and you will find nothing's holding you to the ground
D/F# F G
He just let you go
(Chorus)
G C G F Am G
Don't let him pull you down, just let him drown alone
F C G/B Am G D/F# F
You'll land, and someday you will find a truer hand
C G Am F
I know you tried to see his side clearly, I know you gave your all
C G Am F
I know you died a little inside when nobody heard your call
C G Am G
Every mistake you come to make grows and echoes inside your brain
D/F# F G
You need to let them go
(Chorus)
