Try Hard

G
She's dropping out of school cause 
she don't need the grade,
C
The colors in her hair don't seem to
 fade,
G                                 
I get dressed up when I go out but
      C
 she gets dressed down
G
She's 17 I've told her I'm 20,
C
I couldn't take her out cause Mom's 
got no money,
G                                 
It's stuff like this that makes me
                   C
 wish that I could change somehow
F                    C
Sitting here at home, it's obvious

[Chorus]
G                   C
She's so out of reach, and I'm 
finding it hard cause
G
She makes me feel, makes me feel,
C
Like I try, like I try, like I'm 
trying too hard,
G                   C
Cause I'm not being me, and it's 
getting me down
G
She makes me think, makes me think,
C                                
That I try, that I try, that I'm 
Dm                 C
trying too hard again
C
Cause I'm trying too hard again

[Verse]
G
She's got a rose tattoo but she 
keeps it covered,
Continues after the ad
C
I play guitar but she's into 
drummers,
G                                 
She's seen my face around but she 
               C
doesn't even know my name
G
I pierced my lip so she thinks I'm 
cool,
C
I ripped my jeans and I dropped out 
of school,
G                                 
I followed her around the town but
                        C
 she thinks that I'm a weirdo now
F                     C
Sitting here at home, it's obvious

[Chorus]
G                   C
She's so out of reach, and I'm 
finding it hard cause
G
She makes me feel, makes me feel,
C
Like I try, like I try, like I'm 
trying too hard,
G                   C
Cause I'm not being me, and it's 
getting me down
G
She makes me think, makes me think,
C                                
That I try, that I try, that I'm 
F                  C
trying too hard again
C
Cause I'm trying too hard again

[Verse]
G             C
But now, who knew?
                          G
She's in the crowd of my show
            C
Nothing to lose,
She's standing right in the front 
 G
row
              C
The perfect view,
                     G
She came along after all,
But here's something that you should
Em7
 know
G                    C
You're so out of reach, and I'm 
finding it hard cause
G
She makes me feel, makes me feel,
G                              
Yeah she makes me feel, makes me 
   C
feel

[Chorus]
G                   C
She's so out of reach, and I'm 
finding it hard cause
G
She makes me feel, makes me feel,
C
Like I try, like I try, like I'm 
trying too hard,
G                   C
Cause I'm not being me, and it's 
getting me down
G
She makes me think, makes me think,
C                                
That I try, that I try, that I'm 
F                  C
trying too hard again
C
Cause I'm trying too hard again
