Chords

VERSE 1:
C           Am
I walk the line 
               F
Leave it all behind 
              G
I've been waiting forever 
C                Am
Lets go back in time
                        F
When I could read your mind 
                   G
Still I've been waiting 


BRIDGE:
F                     Am
It took the seasons going by 
    G                F
To know its not my fault 


CHORUS:
C               Am                   F
I tried to be perfect, tried to be honest 
                G
Tried to be everything that you ever wanted 
C               Am                     F
I tried to be stronger, tried to be smarter 
                G
Tried to be everything but you 




VERSE 2:
C            Am
Its been so long 
                    F
Since you've been home 
           G
I used to wait up forever 
C               Am
I used to say a prayer 
                   F
Wishing you were there 
               G
And I'm still waiting 




C            Am
You told me once 
             
You'd show up 
        F
But I fell for that 
         G     
Before I fell to pieces 
C           Am
Then I woke up 

To no one, 
          F
Just a picture of Jesus 
        G
And a house left in pieces 



BRIDGE:
F                    Am
It took the seasons going by 
    G                F
To know its not my fault 


CHORUS:
C               Am                   F
I tried to be perfect, tried to be honest 
                 G
Tried to be everything that you ever wanted 
C                Am                   F
I tried to be stronger, tried to be smarter 
                  G
Tried to be everything but you 


BREAK:
C 
I wanted you 
Am
I need you 
F           G           
I want to believe you 
C
I wanted you 
Am
I need you 
F           G
I want to believe you 





HALF CHORUS:(softer strumming)
C               Am                   F
I tried to be perfect, tried to be honest 
                G
tried to be everything but you 


CHORUS:(back to regular strumming)
C               Am                   F
I tried to be perfect, tried to be honest 
                 G
Tried to be everything that you ever wanted 
C                Am                    F
I tried to be stronger, tried to be smarter 
                G
Tried to be everything but you


CHORUS:
C               Am                   F
I tried to be perfect, tried to be honest 
                 G
Tried to be everything that you ever wanted 
C                Am                    F
I tried to be stronger, tried to be smarter 
                G
Tried to be everything but you
