Aerosmith: What It Takes

There goes my old girlfriend, there`s another diamond ring. And, uh, all those late night promises I guess they don`t mean a thing. So baby what`s the story? Did you find another man ? Is it easy to sleep in the bed that we made? When you don`t look back I guess the feeling starts to fade away. I used to feel your fire but now it`s cold inside. And you`re back on the street like you didn`t miss a beat, yeah.

Tell me what it takes to let you go. Tell me how`s the pain supposed to go. A# A+ Dm Dm/C Tell me how it is that you can sleep, in the night Without thinking you lost ev`rything that was good in your life to the toss of the dice?, Tell me what it takes to let you go, yeah.

Girl before I met you I was F.I.N.E, fine But your love made me a prisoner, yeah my heart`s been doing time. You spent me up like money then you hung me out to dry. It was easy to keep all your lies in disguise, `Cause you had me in deep with the devil in your eyes.

Tell me what it takes . . .

Tell me that you`re happy that you`re on your own. Yeah, yeah Yeah, tell me that is better when you`re all alone. Tell me that your body doesn`t miss my touch. Tell me that my loving didn`t mean that much. Tell me you ain`t dying when you`re crying for me. Tell me what it takes to let you . . . . . . everything that was good in your life to the toss of the dice. Tell me who`s to blame for thinking twice. No, no no no.

`Cause I don`t wanna burn in paradise. Oh Let go, let go, let go I don`t wanna burn in paradise. Let it go, let it go, let it go . . . (one million times, fading)
