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 youre missin home

Only know you love her when you've let her go

And you let her go

Verse 1

Em                              C
Staring at the bottom of your glass
       D                             Bm
Hoping one day you will make a dream last
                 Em            C        D   Dsus4   D
The dreams come slow and goes so fast
     Em                           C
You see her when you close your eyes
       D                          Bm
Maybe one day you will understand why
                Em            C       D   Dsus4   D
Everything you touch all it dies


Chorus

                        C                      G
But you only need the light when it's burning low
               D                       Em
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow

Only know you love her when you've let her go
                       C                        G
Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
               D                        Em
Only hate the road when you're missin home
                C                         G       D   Dsus4   D
Only know you love her when you've let her go


Verse 2

Em                             C
Staring at the ceiling in the dark
          D                     Bm
Same ol empty feeling in your heart
            Em              C         D   Dsus4   D
Love comes slow and it goes so fast
         Em                      C
Well you see her when you fall asleep
                  D                Bm
But to never to touch and never to keep
                          Em
Because you loved her too much
         C                D   Dsus4   D
And you dive too deep


Chorus

                        C                      G
But you only need the light when its burning low
               D                       Em
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
                C                         G      D   Dsus4   D
Only know you love her when you've let her go
                       C                        G
Only know youve been high when you're feeling low
               D                        Em
Only hate the road when you're missin home
                C                           G     D   Dsus4   D
Only know your love her when you've let her go
