I Tried Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Oh, [C]I[G]
[C]jus[G]t want
to tell you that I'm leaving
Cause now I see you have no love for me
Oh, but lov[C]ing you the way you do
I wanted to believe in you
And when [G]you begin to change
I thought I was to blame
When [D]our love was falling for myself,
[C]I made it stand
I [D]did it all alone,
you didn't [C]give a helping hand
But now [D]it's too hard to hold,
so [C]it's time to let it go
Oh, but I [G]tried, oh, how I tried
Oh, now let me look upon you
for the last time
Because your love is
still burning in my heart
And [C]even though it hurts inside,
when you're lost in class
A [G]woman still remembers,
the good times of the past
When [D]love was alive,
alive [C]before his eyes
Happi[D]ness we had,
before [C]it all turned bad
[D]Oh, the love inside,
the [C]memory lingers on
You know I [G]tried, oh how [Em]I tried
[G]I r[C]emember when I was stood
[G]higher than a mountain
[D]Proud and high and reaching to the [G]sky
And [C]when it started falling
[G]You, I started calling
You did[D]n't come and I was
the one that [G]had to try
So hard I tried, oh
Tried my best, you know I tried my best
I my best to know, I tried my best to
Listen, I [C]gave you all that I could give
I wanted our love to live
Our [G]love took all my heart and soul
But your love kept growing so
I [D]tried to love for two
Without [C]the help of you
A love [D]that I called mine
Had [C]faded with the time
But [D]these words you should hear
Before [C]leaving tears
You know I [G]tried my best,
you know I tried my best
I tried to give you everything you ever wanted
I tried to give you all the love you ever needed
I tried, you know I tried
