And it doesn't really matter.] [For the "I let him go" parts at the ends of the verses, play as many E - E7sus4 sequences as is necessary, using the picking pattern from the last two measures of the first verse.]

same chords as one verse, but for all the E - E7sus4 parts, just play it like the "I let him go" parts at the end of the verses.] My name is Calypso; I have let him go In the dawn he sails away to be gone forever more And the waves will take him in again, but he'll know their ways know I will stand upon the shore with a clean heart and my song in the wind The sand will sting my feet and the sky will burn It's a lonely time ahead; I do not ask him to return; I let him go I let him go
