            A
There's an albatross around your neck,
        E
All the things you've said,
and the things you've done,
        A
Can you carry it with no regrets,
         E
Can you stand the person you've become,

C#m           E

A        E             C#m        B
Your Albatross, let it go, let it go,
A        E              C#m            B 
Your Albatross shoot it down, shoot it down
         A   
When you just can't shake
      E             B 
The heavy weight of living

          A
Stepping forward out into the day
           E
Shrugging off the dust and memory
            A
Though it's soaring still above your head
      E
It is out of sight and none shall see

C#m            E

A        E             C#m        B
Your Albatross, let it go, let it go,
A        E              C#m            B 
Your Albatross shoot it down, shoot it down
         A   
When you just can't shake
    E               B 
The heavy weight of living
          A                 E
When you just can't seem to shake
                    B
The heavy weight of Living

A        E             C#m        B
Your Albatross, let it go, let it go,
A        E              C#m            B 
Your Albatross shoot it down, shoot it down
         A   
When you just can't shake
      E             B 
The heavy weight of living

When you just can't seem to shake
                    B
The heavy weight of Living
