[Intro]
G Gadd4 G Gadd4
[Strophe]
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 
        D 
But I'm here in your doorway
[Refrain]
              Em               C               G  Gsus2 
I just wanted you to know that this is me trying 
              Em               C               Dsus4  D 
I just wanted you to know that this is me trying
[Post-Refrain]
G Gadd4
[Strophe]
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                                              C 
I was so ahead of the curve, the curve became a sphere 
                                             D 
Fell behind all my classmates and I ended up here 
                                          D 
Pouring out my heart to a stranger, but I didn't pour the whiskey
[Refrain]
              Em               C               G  Gsus2 
I just wanted you to know that this is me trying 
              Em               C               Dsus4  D 
I just wanted you to know that this is me trying
[Post-Refrain]
              G     C  G  Gsus2 
At least I'm trying
[Pont]
         Em                                             C 
And it's hard to be at a party when I feel like an open wound 
                                                       D 
It's hard to be anywhere these days when all I want is you 
                                                       D 
You're a flashback in a film reel on the one screen in my town
[Refrain]
                  Em               C               G 
And I just wanted you to know that this is me trying 
                         Gsus2 
(And maybe I don't quite know what to say) 
              Em               C               Dsus4  D 
I just wanted you to know that this is me trying
[Outro]
             G      Gadd4  G 
At least I'm trying
