C#                              F#
Tryin', I'm not there, but I'm tryin'
            A#m             G#                 F#
And honestly, sometimes I think you want too much
C#                        F#
Tryin', all this shit is tryin'
                A#m          G#               F#
I'm not a movie hero, just a guy you say you love
C#                               F#
Lyin', you say it's fine, you're lyin'
                A#m
But how am I supposed to know that?
G#                  F#
I can't read that stuff
C#                        F#
Tryin', can't you see me tryin'?
                A#m               G#
When did I wake up and find out tryin'
       F#
isn't good enough?
G#  F#maj7
Oh, woah

Chorus:
      C#           G#            F#
Oh, I don't wanna tell you I'm leavin'
      C#            G#        F#
And I won't if you give me an inch
      C#            G#              G#/C      C#
Oh, I want you to change 'cause you want to change
          Fm                     F#
I know I tried, can you say you did?

Tryin' doesn't mean you're changing
Doesn't mean the whole thing's getting fixed
Just means you want it to
Tryin' doesn't mean it's better
Doesn't mean you're magically the person
that I want from you
Tryin' doesn't make you perfect
Really, it's the minimum you do for those you love
Tryin', I can see you tryin'
And no one ever told you sometimes
trying isn't good enough
Oh, ooh

Chorus:
Oh, I don't wanna tell you I'm leavin'
And I won't if you give me an inch
Oh, I want you to change 'cause you want to change
I know I tried, can you say you did?
And I hate you right now, and God, I hate that
You're the love of my life,
but this ain't no way to live
I want you to change 'cause you want to change
I tried, can you say you did?

How am I supposed to know you're lyin'?
You're just meant to know
What else is there left to do but tryin'?
Tryin' harder, oh
I don't know how to be what you want from me
And I have a feeling soon you won't be wanting me
I can't believe you can't see when I'm lyin'
Just tell me what to do
I love you and I'm sorry and I'm tryin'
And I'm tryin' too
But I don't know how to be what you want from me
And I have a feeling soon you won't be wanting me
