Ryan Adams
Let Go
[Verse 1]
Pink as a rose, the sun is fading
Can you feel the darkness that surrounds the house?
Plain as the truth, my breath is bated
It pinches like a trap shut around the mouse

[Chorus]
Let down the rope 'cause we fell in
Let down the rope
Hanging 'round the wishing well
It's a slippery slope
And I let go
Let go
Let go
Let go of it

[Verse 2]
Driving at night beside the river
Looking at it, it's going nowhere
Dark as a room with the light shut out
I'm feeling 'round the walls for another way out

[Chorus]
Let down the rope 'cause we fell in
Let down the rope
Hanging 'round the wishing well
It's a slippery slope
And I let go
Let go
Let go
Let go
[Bridge]
Cross your fingers behind your back
And lie to me
Tell me it's okay and you'll fix everything
'Cause I let go

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
Pink as a rose, the sunset's fading
Shattering the light on the oceanside
Standing alone, I am not waiting
Maybe I'm asleep, my heart is paralyzed

[Chorus 2]
Put down the rope cause we fell in
Put down the rope
Hanging 'round the wishing well
It's a slippery slope
And I let go
Let go
Let go
Let go of it
