Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E) Intro: A5 D5 A D5 Verse 1: A I've been having a hard time adjusting D I had the shiniest wheels, now they're rusting A I didn't know if you'd care if I came back E/G# I have a lot of regrets about that F#m Pulled the car off the road to the lookout D
Could've followed my fears all the way down E And maybe I don't quite know what to say, but I'm here in your doorway Chorus: F#m D A I just wanted you to know that this is me trying A/C# D E I just wanted you to know that this is me trying Instrumental: A/C# D F#m E Verse 2: A They told me all of my cages were mental D So I got wasted like all my potential A And my words shoot to kill when I'm mad E/G# I have a lot of regrets about that F#m D I was so ahead of the curve, the curve became a sphere E Fell behind all my classmates and I ended up here E Pouring out my heart to a stranger E But I didn't pour the whiskey Chorus: F#m D A I just wanted you to know that this is me trying A/C# D E I just wanted you to know that this is me trying Post-Chorus: A D A E/G# At least I'm trying Bridge: F#m D And it's hard to be at a party when I feel like an open wound E It's hard to be anywhere these days when all I want is you E You're a flashback in a film reel on the one screen in my town Chorus: F#m D And I just wanted you to know that this is me trying A (And maybe I don't quite know what to say) A/C# D E I just wanted you to know that this is me trying Outro: A Asus2 A At least I'm trying
