Intro: GDEm7CGD/F#Em7
I blew out all my plans
CG
The world fell in my hands
D/F#
The day that I began
CG
Trying to love you

The secrets I have kept
CG
The nights I haven't slept
D/F#
I've laughed until I've wept
CGAm7
Trying to love you

Trying to love you
No one's come as close or gone so far

Trying to love you
Lost and found myself in who you are

Trying to love you

So easy and so hard
GD/F#G
Trying to love you

Squandered all my luck

I've almost given up

Trying to love you
Chorus 2:
GAm7
Trying to love you
It broke my heart, it's chipped away my pride

Every time I'd see that fault-line slide

Trying to love you
GD
Across the great divide
G
Trying to love you
