Verse 1:
G# F#2/G#
Oh this son of mine I love so well
Fm/G# F#2/G#
And all the toil it takes
G# Fm7
I’d give to him a garden
F# G#
and keep it clear of snakes
Cm C#
But the one thing he most treasures
D# Fm A#m
Is to make his own mistakes - ohhh
G# F#2/G#
He goes charging on the cliffs of life
Fm/G# F#2/G#
C# reckless mountaineer
G# Fm7
I could help him not to stumble
F# G#
I could warn him what to fear
Cm C#
I could shout until I’m breathless
D# Fm A#m
And he’d still refuse to hear - ohhh
Chorus:
A#m C#maj7 D#
But you cannot close the acorn
Cm7 Fm
Once the oak begins to grow
Cm Cm7 Fm7
And you cannot close your heart
A#m C#7 D#
To what it fears and needs to know
Cm C# Fm D#
That the hardest part of love
G#
Is the letting go
Verse 2:
G# F#2/G#
As a child I found a sparrow
Fm/G# F#2/G#
Who had fallen from the nest
G# Fm7
And I nursed him back to health
F# G#
Till he was stronger than the rest
Cm C#
But when I tried to hold it
D# Fm
It would peck and scratch my chest
A#m
Till I let it go
G# F#2/G#
And I watched it fly away from me
Fm/G# F#2/G#
With its brightened self resolve
G# Fm7
And part of me was cursing
F# G#
I had helped it grow so strong
Cm C#
And I feared it might go hungry
D# Fm A#m
And I feared it might go wrong - ohhh
Chorus:
A#m C#7 D#
But I could not close the acorn
Cm7 Fm
Once the oak began to grow
Cm Cm7 Fm7
And I cannot close my heart
A#m C#7 D#
To what it fears and needs to know
Cm C# Fm D#
That the hardest part of love
G#
Is the letting go
G# F#2/G# Fm/G# F#2/G#
G# F#2/G#
And it’s only in Eden
Fm/G# F#2/G#
Grows a rose without a thorn
G# Fm7
And your children start to leave you
F# G#
On the day that they were born
Cm C#
They will leave you there to cheer for them
D# Fm A#m
They will leave you there to mourn ever so
G# F#2/G#
Like an ark on uncharted seas
Fm/G# F#2/G#
Their lives will be tossed
G# Fm7
And deeper is your love for them
F# G#
The crueler is the cost
Cm C#
And just when they start to find themselves
D# Fm A#m
Is when you fear they’re lost - ohhh
Chorus:
A#m C#maj7 D#
But you cannot close the acorn
Cm7 Fm
Once the oak begins to grow
Cm Cm7 Fm7
And you cannot close your heart
A#m C#7 D#
To what it fears and needs to know
Cm C# Fm D#
That the hardest part of love
Cm C# Fm D#
And the rarest part of love
Fm C# D#
And the truest part of love
G#
Is the letting go
