Capo: 7th fret, fingerpicked intro

Chorus

F7  
Well, you only need the light when it’s burning  
C  
low
 
Only miss the 
G  
sun when it starts to  
Am  
snow
 
Only know you 
F7  
love her when you let her go
C  
G  
 
Only know you’ve been 
F7  
high when you’re feeling  
C  
low
 
Only hate the 
G  
road when you’re missing  
Am  
home
 
Only know you 
F  
love her when you let her  
C  
go
G  
And you let her go
Verse

Am  
Staring at the bottom of your  
F7  
glass
 
Hoping one 
G  
day you’ll make a dream  
Em  
last
 
But dreams come 
Am  
slow, and they  
F7  
go so  
G  
fast
 
You see 
Am  
her when you close your  
F7  
eyes
 
Maybe one 
G  
day, you’ll understand  
Em  
why
 
Everything you 
Am  
touch surely  
F7  
dies 
 
 
G  
Chorus

But you only need the light when it’s burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go
Only know you’ve been high when you’re feeling low
Only hate the road when you’re missing home
Only know you love her when you let her go
Verse

Staring at the ceiling in the dark
Same old empty feeling in your heart
‘Cause love comes slow, and it goes so fast
Well, you see her when you fall asleep
But never to touch and never to keep
‘Cause you loved her too much, and you dived too deep
Chorus

Well, you only need the light when it’s burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go
Only know you’ve been high when you’re feeling low
Only hate the road when you’re missing home
Only know you love her when you let her go
And you let her go
Oh, oh, mm, oh
And you let her go
Oh, oh, uh, uh
Well, you let her go

‘Cause you only need the light when it’s burning low

Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go
Only know you’ve been high when you’re feeling low
Only hate the road when you’re missing home
Only know you love her when you let her go
‘Cause you only need the light when it’s burning low

Only miss the sun when it starts to snow

Only know you love her when you let her go
Only know you’ve been high when you’re feeling low
Only hate the road when you’re missing home
Only know you love her when you let her go
And you let her go
