F D#2/F Dm/F D#2/F
Verse 1:
F D#2/F
Oh this son of mine I love so well
Dm/F D#2/F
And all the toil it takes
F Dm7
I’d give to him a garden
D# F
and keep it clear of snakes
Am A#
But the one thing he most treasures
C Dm Gm
Is to make his own mistakes - ohhh
F D#2/F
He goes charging on the cliffs of life
Dm/F D#2/F
A# reckless mountaineer
F Dm7
I could help him not to stumble
D# F
I could warn him what to fear
Am A#
I could shout until I’m breathless
C Dm Gm
And he’d still refuse to hear - ohhh
Chorus:
Gm A#maj7 C
But you cannot close the acorn
Am7 Dm
Once the oak begins to grow
Am Am7 Dm7
And you cannot close your heart
Gm A#7 C
To what it fears and needs to know
Am A# Dm C
That the hardest part of love
F
Is the letting go
Verse 2:
F D#2/F
As a child I found a sparrow
Dm/F D#2/F
Who had fallen from the nest
F Dm7
And I nursed him back to health
D# F
Till he was stronger than the rest
Am A#
But when I tried to hold it
C Dm
It would peck and scratch my chest
Gm
Till I let it go
F D#2/F
And I watched it fly away from me
Dm/F D#2/F
With its brightened self resolve
F Dm7
And part of me was cursing
D# F
I had helped it grow so strong
Am A#
And I feared it might go hungry
C Dm Gm
And I feared it might go wrong - ohhh
Chorus:
Gm A#7 C
But I could not close the acorn
Am7 Dm
Once the oak began to grow
Am Am7 Dm7
And I cannot close my heart
Gm A#7 C
To what it fears and needs to know
Am A# Dm C
That the hardest part of love
F
Is the letting go
F D#2/F Dm/F D#2/F
F D#2/F
And it’s only in Eden
Dm/F D#2/F
Grows a rose without a thorn
F Dm7
And your children start to leave you
D# F
On the day that they were born
Am A#
They will leave you there to cheer for them
C Dm Gm
They will leave you there to mourn ever so
F D#2/F
Like an ark on uncharted seas
Dm/F D#2/F
Their lives will be tossed
F Dm7
And deeper is your love for them
D# F
The crueler is the cost
Am A#
And just when they start to find themselves
C Dm Gm
Is when you fear they’re lost - ohhh
Chorus:
Gm A#maj7 C
But you cannot close the acorn
Am7 Dm
Once the oak begins to grow
Am Am7 Dm7
And you cannot close your heart
Gm A#7 C
To what it fears and needs to know
Am A# Dm C
That the hardest part of love
Am A# Dm C
And the rarest part of love
Dm A# C
And the truest part of love
F
Is the letting go
