[Intro] A Aadd4 A Aadd4 [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 A/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 E 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 A I just wanted you to know that this is me trying [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 A/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 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 A/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 A And I just wanted you to know that this is me trying (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 At least I'm trying
