[Intro]
C G D (2x)
[Verse]
C
There's an albatross around your neck,
G
All the things you've said and the things you've done:
C
Can you carry it with no regrets?
G
Can you stand the person you've become?
[Pre-Chorus]
Em G
Oh, there's a light,
Em G
Oh, oh, oh, there's a light...
[Chorus]
C G Em D
Your albatross, let it go, let it go.
C G Em D
Your albatross, shoot it down, shoot it down
C G D
When you just can't shake the heavy weight of living.
[Verse]
C
Stepping forward out into the day,
G
Shrugging off the dust and memory.
C
Though it's soaring still above your head,
G
It is out of sight and none shall see.
[Pre-Chorus]
Em G
Oh, there's a light,
Em G
Oh, oh, oh, there's a light...
[Chorus]
C G Em D
Your albatross, let it go, let it go.
C G Em D
Your albatross, shoot it down, shoot it down
C G D
When you just can't shake the heavy weight of living.
C G D
When you just can't seem to shake the weight of living...
[Bridge]
Em C G D
It's the sun in your eyes, in your eyes.
Em C G D
It's the sun in your eyes, in your eyes.
Em C G D
It's the sun in your eyes, in your eyes.
Em C G D
It's the sun in your eyes, in your eyes.
[Chorus]
C G Em D
Your albatross, let it go, let it go.
C G Em D
Your albatross, shoot it down, shoot it down
C G D
When you just can't shake the heavy weight of living.
C G D
When you just can't seem to shake the weight of living...
[Outro]
C G
The weight of living,
D
The weight of living,
C G
The weight of living,
D
The weight of living.
