[Dm] [C] [Gm]
Monty, this seems [Bb] strange to me
[Gm] The movie's had [Bb] that movie thing
[Gm] But nonsense has [Bb] a welcome ring
[G] And heroes don't come easy
[Gm] Now nonsense [Bb] isn't new to me
[Gm] I know my head, [Bb] I know my feet
[Gm] But mischief knocked [Bb] me in the knees
[G] Said just [C] let [G] go,
[Dm] just [C] let [G] go
[D] [Gm] Saw the ocean [Bb] meet the man
[Gm] Saw you buried [Bb] in the sand
[Gm] Friends [Bb] had a hold of your hand
[Dm] Said walk [C] on [G] by
So [Gm] I went [Bb] walking through the stream
[Gm] Saw you strung [Bb] up in a tree
[Gm] A woman out [Bb] there said to me
[Dm] Hold [C] your [G] tongue, [Dm] hold [G] your tongue
[Bb] You [C] don't owe [G] me anything
You
[Bb] [C] don't want [G] their sympathy
[Bb] Don't [C] you waste [G] your [Bb] breath
Or [C] the silver [G] key
But
[Gm] nonsense [Bb] doesn't mean a thing
[Gm] I tried to [Bb] butcher you in a thing
[Gm] Virtue [Bb] isn't everything
[Dm] So don't [C] [G] waste your time
[Gm] Now here's a rhyme [Bb] you can steal
[Gm] But it's on [Bb] your reel
[Gm] This ship grew [Bb] rotten to your [Dm] will
But [C] he's [G] letting go
[Dm] He [C] is letting [G] go
[Dm] Just [C] let [G] go, just [C] let [G] go
[Bb] You [C] don't owe [G] me anything
[Bb] You [C] don't want [G] their sympathy
[Bb] Don't [C] you waste [G] your breath
[Bb] I'll see [C] this [G] scene strangely
[Bb] [C] [G]
