Capo 2 
 
       A                        F#m  
Lonely sound of distant thunder stirs my restless sleep 
        D                           E 
And the dream that i was lost in slips away 
     A                          F#m  
Of a young son and his mama, so innocent back then 
          D                     E 
Would she even recognize her boy today 
  

             F#m             E 
Cause I have fought into the darkness 
                 D                   E 
And I've spilled blood, with these 2 hands 
          A       F#m   
And in my heart I wish I could believe 
D         E         A    E 
Who I was, is who I am  
 
I've crossed mountains, hills, and valleys 

From sea to shining sea 

Barren sands to blinding snow 

I held my brother as he laid dieing 

Beside me in some field 

Said a prayer, and let him go 
 
Chorus 
 
Bridge: 
            A               D 
I'm letting go (i'm letting go) 
        A               E 
Letting go (i'm letting go) 
                 A               D         
Well i'm letting go (i'm letting go) 
        A               E 
Letting go (i'm letting go) 
 
 
Now with all my trials behind me 
I'm so blessed to cast my eyes 
On my family and my home 
And with faith i faced my demons 
When God was on our side 
All that's left, is letting go
