A B G F#
[Verse 1]
E B
well you stay up all night
E B
pills and coffee
B F#
you keep pushing yourself just to get ahead
E B
and you knock so loud,
E B
but nothing will answer
B F#
just a waste of time, but you won't admit
[Chorus]
A B
Ooooo, oooo
G F#
Youre just trying too hard
A B
Ooooo,ooooo
G F#
you’re just trying too hard
[Interlude]
E B E B E B E F#
[Verse 2]
E B
like a verse that’s lost
E B
and no words to find it
B F#
like a teenage kid that just can't fit in
E B
and the struggle’s long,
E B
your patience gone
B F#
just a slap in the face when the day is done
[Chorus]
A B
Ooooo, oooo
G F#
Youre just trying too hard
A B
Ooooo,ooooo
G F#
you’re just trying too hard
