Let It Go - Blue October
Great song off Foiled. The guitar is very subtle in the song but very good. Thought I
try to put up exactly what it's doing since the only decent tab on here right now is
Props to XAVIERSMITH for that chord tab (especially tabbing out the violin solo), which
this a whole lot easier to figure out.
I tried to give you as many indicators as possible as to the timing, but you really need
listen to it to get it down. Isolating the guitar as much as possible by shutting off
left speaker helps a lot.
Enjoy!

As far as the solos go, what I like to do is play the first half of the Harmonica solo,
into strumming the final chorus, and then play the last half of the violin solo once
chorus is over. That is how I'll tab it out, just know that both solos are actually
as long and played back to back behind the final chorus.

Where do you go
When the day is long
And where does your heart beat
And who is wrong
Why do I feel this way
Why do I kneel
How could I let it go
Why do I feel
Why do I feel
Why
How
Follow me home
Through the, the maize and awn
I'll show you the road
That I led you the wrong way on
Why did I go that way
Why do I steal
How could I let her go
Why do I feel
Oh why did I go that way
Why do I steal
How could I let her go
Why do I feel
Why do I feel
Why
Harmonica Solo
(Strum) Am F
Why did I go that way
Why do I need
How could I let her go
Why do I feel
Oh why did I go that way
How could I steal
Oh how could I
How could I
How could I

How could I
