Intro
A# G#2/A# Gm/A# G#2/A#
Verse 1:
A# G#2/A#
Oh this son of mine I love so well
Gm/A# G#2/A#
And all the toil it takes
A# Gm7
I’d give to him a garden
G# A#
and keep it clear of snakes
Dm D#
But the one thing he most treasures
F Gm Cm
Is to make his own mistakes - ohhh
A# G#2/A#
He goes charging on the cliffs of life
Gm/A# G#2/A#
D# reckless mountaineer
A# Gm7
I could help him not to stumble
G# A#
I could warn him what to fear
Dm D#
I could shout until I’m breathless
F Gm Cm
And he’d still refuse to hear - ohhh
Chorus:
Cm D#maj7 F
But you cannot close the acorn
Dm7 Gm
Once the oak begins to grow
Dm Dm7 Gm7
And you cannot close your heart
Cm D#7 F
To what it fears and needs to know
Dm D# Gm F
That the hardest part of love
A#
Is the letting go
Verse 2:
A# G#2/A#
As a child I found a sparrow
Gm/A# G#2/A#
Who had fallen from the nest
A# Gm7
And I nursed him back to health
G# A#
Till he was stronger than the rest
Dm D#
But when I tried to hold it
F Gm
It would peck and scratch my chest
Cm
Till I let it go
A# G#2/A#
And I watched it fly away from me
Gm/A# G#2/A#
With its brightened self resolve
A# Gm7
And part of me was cursing
G# A#
I had helped it grow so strong
Dm D#
And I feared it might go hungry
F Gm Cm
And I feared it might go wrong - ohhh
Chorus:
Cm D#7 F
But I could not close the acorn
Dm7 Gm
Once the oak began to grow
Dm Dm7 Gm7
And I cannot close my heart
Cm D#7 F
To what it fears and needs to know
Dm D# Gm F
That the hardest part of love
A#
Is the letting go
A# G#2/A# Gm/A# G#2/A#
A# G#2/A#
And it’s only in Eden
Gm/A# G#2/A#
Grows a rose without a thorn
A# Gm7
And your children start to leave you
G# A#
On the day that they were born
Dm D#
They will leave you there to cheer for them
F Gm Cm
They will leave you there to mourn ever so
A# G#2/A#
Like an ark on uncharted seas
Gm/A# G#2/A#
Their lives will be tossed
A# Gm7
And deeper is your love for them
G# A#
The crueler is the cost
Dm D#
And just when they start to find themselves
F Gm Cm
Is when you fear they’re lost - ohhh
Chorus:
Cm D#maj7 F
But you cannot close the acorn
Dm7 Gm
Once the oak begins to grow
Dm Dm7 Gm7
And you cannot close your heart
Cm D#7 F
To what it fears and needs to know
Dm D# Gm F
That the hardest part of love
Dm D# Gm F
And the rarest part of love
Gm D# F
And the truest part of love
A#
Is the letting go
