Verse 1
[G]I’ve been having a hard time adjusting
[C]I had the shiniest wheels, now they’re rusting
[G]I didn’t know if you’d care if I came back
[Gsus2]I have a lot of regrets about that
[Em]Pulled the car off the road to the lookout
[C]Could’ve followed my fears all the way down
[D]And maybe I don’t quite know what to say
But I’m [D]here in your doorway
Chorus
I just wanted [Em]you to know that [C]this is me tryin[G]g [Gsus2]
I just wanted [Em]you to know that [C]this is me tryin[Dsus4]g [D]
Post-Chorus
[G] [Gadd4]
Verse 2
[G]They told me all of my cages were mental
[C]So I got wasted like all my potential
[G]And my words shoot to kill when I’m mad
[Gsus2]I have a lot of regrets about that
[Em]I was so ahead of the curve, the curve became a [C]sphere
Fell behind all my classmates and I ended up [D]here
Pouring out my heart to a stranger, but I [D]didn’t pour the whiskey
Chorus
I just wanted [Em]you to know that [C]this is me tryin[G]g [Gsus2]
I just wanted [Em]you to know that [C]this is me tryin[Dsus4]g [D]
Post-Chorus
At least I’m t[G]rying [C] [G] [Gsus2]
Bridge
And it’s [Em]hard to be at a party when I feel like an open [C]wound
It’s hard to be anywhere these days when all I want is [D]you
You’re a flashback in a film reel on the one screen in [D]my town
Chorus
And I just wanted [Em]you to know that [C]this is me tryin[G]g
(And maybe I don’t quite [Gsus2]know what to say)
I just wanted [Em]you to know that [C]this is me tryin[Dsus4]g [D]
Outro
At least I’m [G]trying [Gadd4] [G]
