Before I Let You Go (Colbie Caillat Cover) - Nate Laughlin

Check out my EP Stagecoach Criminal on iTunes: http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/stagecoach-criminal-ep/id436248992
Or my website: NateLaughlin.com

This song is originally in C but I did it in G as it suited my voice better. Here are the lyrics as I could make them out. Some may be a bit off. I used the Nashville numbering system to make it easy to transpose. Check out some of my originals too! Enjoy!

Before I Let You Go
C (Female) G (Male)

1 5 -- 6m 4
I see you looking over you keep on looking back
you're watching // and babe come in closer
closer to the one that's good for you
6m 3m 2m
cuz you're still going back to that life
and I refuse to stand on the side
sparing him from heartache
don't you know you end up hurting me

1 5 -- 6m 4
I see your head spin right around
he makes ya fall hard and hit the ground
when you ever gonna let him go
I see the way he breaks you so
all i'm asking is for you please
to take control and be set free
make the space so we can grow
say you love before I let you go

1 5 -- 6m 4
so you say it's working better
better for you and him only
I don't know what to tell ya
it's not my fault there I don't believe
6m 3m 2m
cuz you're still so stuck in that life
and I refuse to stay on this ride
cuz we're going round in circles
aren't you tired of never having peace

3m 6m 2m 5
well I have been waiting for you to change this
but it has taken too long
so I can't keep waiting i've got to change this
it's hard for me to act to be so strong­

Maybe I (repeat)
I never wanna let you go, no

[ewinmn]

hmm, were you nervous? ;)

[stlausdeo]

@ewinmn nervous? how do you mean?

[ewinmn]

@stlausdeo i mean like, you were just a little bit out of tune in the beginning. but thats okay ;) you were better towards the middle and end of the song ;)

[stlausdeo]

@ewinmn No the rhythm is difficult because the chords are pushed and there are tons of lyrics so i just didn't know the song well enough.. wasn't as focused on my vocals..
