A              A/g   F#m7        F13
I've never seen your eyes so wide
      A                     A/g        F#m7      F13      Em
I've never seen your appetite quite this occupied
D     Dm7          A       G#dim A      E7/g#    A      E7/g#
Elsewhere is your feast of love, I know

      A        A/g     F#m7        F13
Long ago we agreed to keep it light
    A         A/g    F#m7     F13    Em
So let's be married one more night
D         Dm7       A      E7/g#
It's light, light enough
           A      E7/g#    A     E7/g#
To let it go
    D   Dm7 A      G#dim
It's light enough
           A    Bm7  C
To let it go

C#                                 F#m    B7    F#m    B7
Remember when the scenery started fading
C#                                     F#m    B7    F#m    B7
I held you 'til you learned to walk on air
D                  E/d
So don't look down, the ground is gone
                C#m7      F#m
There's no one waving anyway
      B              Bm7     E
The smokey life is practiced everywhere

So set your restless heart at ease
Take a lesson from these autumn leaves
They waste no time waiting for the snow

Don't argue now or you'll be late
There's nothing to investigate
It's light enough, light enough
To let it go
Light enough
To let it go

Remember when the scenery started fading
I held you 'til you learned to walk on air
So don't look down, the ground is gone
There's no one waving anyway
The smokey life is practiced everywhere

Come on back if the moment lends
You can look up all my very closest friends
Light, light enough
To let it go
It's light, light enough
           A     A/g    F#m7   F13    A
To let it go
