Goodbyes Don't Last Forever

[Verse 1]
                  C
I'm letting you go
                  Em
But not the tears you cried that night
        Dm
Sitting under twinkling lights
        C
Watchin time go by
                  C
I'll wave farewell
               Em
But not to all the special times
              Dm
The birthdays and the loud car rides
            C
The painted sunset skies
 
[Pre-Chorus]
C                                Em
Watchin as your car fades out of view
              Dm                          C
I know you're scared to step in something new
 
[Chorus]
  F                 C
I know it's hard to be so far
     Em
From all you've ever known
         Dm
It isn't easy to let go
Dm
Feelin as if you're alone
    F                 C
But you'll never know if you can fly
       Em
Unless you jump first
       Dm
Change becomes an adventure
      Dm
We're no longer together
    F                   C
But goodbyes don't last forever
  Em   Dm  Dm
oooh oooh
 
[Verse 2]
              C
As years go by
                  Em
The ceiling stars begin to fade
                     Dm
Your paper airplanes fly away
              C
Nothing stays the same
 
[Pre-Chorus]
C                                     Em
It's difficult to leave all that you know
              Dm              C
But sometimes unknowns can be beautiful
 
[Chorus]
  F                 C
I know it's hard to be so far
     Em
From all you've ever known
         Dm
It isn't easy to let go
Dm
Feelin as if you're alone
    F                 C
But you'll never know if you can fly
       Em
Unless you jump first
       Dm
Change becomes an adventure
      Dm
We're no longer together
    F                   C
But goodbyes don't last forever
 
[Bridge]
Em
Though you're far away
Dm
Things won't change
     C
I'll miss you
    C
But I know it's not forever
     Em
I'll see you one last time
        Dm
Promise you'll be alright
     C
I'll miss you
    C
But I know it's not forever
 
[Chorus]
  F              C
I know it's hard to be so far
     Em
From all you've ever known
   Dm
It isn't easy to let go
Dm
Feelin as if you're alone
    F                 C
But you'll never know if you can fly
       Em
Unless you jump first
       Dm
Change becomes an adventure
      Dm
We're no longer together
N.C.
But goodbyes don't last forever
 
[Chorus]
  F              C
I know it's hard to be so far
     Em
From all you've ever known
   Dm
It isn't easy to let go
Dm
Feelin as if you're alone
    F                 C
But you'll never know if you can fly
       Em
Unless you jump first
       Dm
Change becomes an adventure
      Dm
We're no longer together
    F                           C
But goodbyes don't last forever
