D  A   A7  D  A

 D             D7                        G
Please release me, let me go,
     A         A7                D       A
for I don't love you anymore.
     D               D7                      G
To waste our lives would be a sin,
    D                      A         A7     D      A
release me, and let me love again.



D         D7                         G
I have found a new love, dear,
     A          A7                     D        A
and I will always want her near.
       D           D7                                G
Her lips are warm while yours are cold,
   D                       A         A7       D    A
release me, my darling, let me go.      
 Couplet:
D             D7                             G
Please release me, can't you see,
          A     A7                    D     A
you'd be a fool to cling to me.
      D      D7                         G
To live a lie would bring us pain,
       D                       A          A7     D    
so release me, and let me, love again. 
        D                      A          A7     G     D
so release me, and let me, love again.
