This Is Me Trying

[Intro ]A  Dmaj7  A  Dmaj7 

A 
I've been having a hard time adjusting 
Dmaj7 
I had the shiniest wheels, now they're rusting 
F#m 
I didn't know if you'd care if I came back 
E/G# 
I have a lot of regrets about that 
A 
Pulled the car off the road to the lookout 
Dmaj7 
Could've followed my fears all the way down 
F#m 
And maybe I don't quite know what to say 
       E4 
But I'm here in your doorway 

               F#m              D            A 
I just wanted you to know that this is me trying 
              F#m              D              E4 
I just wanted you to know that this is me trying 

( A  Dmaj7 ) 

A 
They told me all of my cages were mental 
Dmaj7 
So I got wasted like all my potential 
F#m 
And my words shoot to kill when I'm mad 
E/G# 
I have a lot of regrets about that 
A                                                 Dmaj7 
I was so ahead of the curve, the curve became a sphere 

Fell behind all my classmates and I ended up here 
F#m 
Pouring out my heart to a stranger 
E4 
But I didn't pour the whiskey 

               F#m              D            A 
I just wanted you to know that this is me trying 
              F#m              D              E4 
I just wanted you to know that this is me trying 
                A  E4 
At least I'm trying 

         F#m                                             D 
And it's hard to be at a party when I feel like an open wound 
                                                    E4 
It's hard to be anywhere these days when all I want is you 

You're a flashback in a film reel on the one screen in my town 

               F#m              D            A 
I just wanted you to know that this is me trying (And maybe I don't quite know what to say) 
              F#m              D              E4 
I just wanted you to know that this is me trying 
                A 
At least I'm trying
