D G C D
 
[Verse 1]
       G             Em
Let us talk no more, let us go to sleep,
        C
Let the rain fall on the window pane,
    G               D
And fill the castle keep,
     G          Em
I am weary now, weary to my bones,
C
Weary from the travelling,
        G               D
And the endless country roads,
                C                      D
That brought us here tonight, for this weekend,
      G                 C
And a chance to work it out,
       Am                   D                   Em    E
For we cannot live together, and we cannot live apart,
         Am                D                        G     C D
It's the classical dilemma between the head and the heart;
 
[Verse 2]
       G             Em
She is sleeping now, softly in the night,
    C
And in my heart of darkness 
        G             D
she has been the only light,
     G             Em
I am lost in love, looking at her face,
    C
And still I hear the voice of reason,
G             D                  C
Telling me to chase these dreams away,
           D
Oh here we go again, 
        G              C
we're divided from the start,
       Am                   D                   Em    E
For we cannot live together, and we cannot live apart,
         Am                D                        G     C
It's the classical dilemma between the head and the heart;
    D            G    C D
The head and the heart
 
[Verse 3]
        G                Em
Now the dawn begins, and still I cannot sleep,
   C
My head is spinning round 
            G               D
but now the way is clear to me,
         G             Em
There is nothing left, nothing left to show,
    C
The jury and the judge will see, 
     G               D
it's time to let her go,
             C     D
Now hear the heart:
  G                      C
I believe that time will show,
         Am                     D
She will always be a part of my world,
                       Em  E
I don't want to see her go;
     Am               D
So I plead my case to hear the heart,
    G  Em
And stay
 
[Outro]
     D               G
It's time to let her go
                D       C
I don't want to let her go
     D               G
It's time to let her go
                D       C
I don't want to let her go
     D               Em E
It's time to let her go
            Am                D
And in this classical dilemma,
               G     C D G
I find for the heart.
