              I Try

 

        Verse 1:

        D                 A

        Games changes and fears

                       Em

        When will they go from here?   When will they stop?

                       D                   A

        I beleive that fate has brought us here

                           Em7

        And we should be together babe, but were not.

        G                    F#m7

        I play it off but im dreaming of you

        Em7                         A

        And Ill keep my cool but im fading

 

        Chorus:

                         D

        I try to say goodbye and I choke

                      Asus

        I try to walk away and I stumble

                         Em7

        Though I try to hide it, its clear

                 G                         A

        My world crumbles when you are not near

           D                             Asus

        Goodbye and I choke, try to walk away and I stumble

                         Em7

        though I try to hide it, its clear

                    G

        My world crumbles when you are not near

        I may appear to be free

                      Em

        but Im just a prisoner    of your love

                         D                        A

        and I may seem alright and smile when you leave

                          Em7

        but my smiles are just a front,  just a front

        G                    F#m7

        I play it off but Im dreaming of you

                        Em7                         C7

        Boy I need your touch, your love kisses and such

                            Bm7                 Em

        With all my might I try but this I cant deny, deny

        G                    F#m7
