I Love You Enough To Let You Go

I Love You Enough To Let You Go
Recorded by Alabama
Written by Randy Owens, Gary Baker, Frank J. Myers



G7     C                      Am
I've rehearsed this day a thousand times
     Em                    F     G7
I've played this scene out in my mind
           C              Am
You spread your wings you need to fly
   Em                 F       G7
It breaks my heart to say goodbye
      Dm                 G7
These arms of mine wanna pull you close
      Dm                 G7      C   G7
But I love you enough to let you go

   C                 Am
My mind goes back to memories
   Em         F       G7
Of pony rides upon my knee
      C                  Am
First day of school your brand new bike
    Em                F      G7
And football games on Friday nights
    Dm                     G7
And through the years I've watched you grow
      Dm                 G7      C
And I love you enough to let you go

      Am                 Em
Don't look back when you drive away
  F                       C    G7
I don't wanna change your mind
  Am               Em
I know in all your eighteen years
Dm                F          C
You've never seen your daddy cry

                 Am
So many things I want to say
       Em               F         G7
You'll meet new friends you'll be okay
     C                Am
I'll pray for you out on your own
    Em                F        G7
But don't forget your way back home
    Dm               G7
And though I may not let it show
       Dm            G7      C
I love you enough to let you go

Repeat #3

      Dm                 G7
These arms of mine wanna pull you close
      Dm                 G7      C
But I love you enough to let you go
