C D C
If you were a melody, I'd sing you all the time

I'd learn how to paint you
Chorus:
C
You know I'd try
G
You know I'd try
(repeat)
Verse 2 (same chords as verse 1)
If you were words in a story, you'd be in a book that's overdue
somewhere hidden in my closet, I've looked a million times for you
and if you were just one day, you'd be the very first of May
G
And I'd be sunlight in your skies
Chorus 2:
C
Or at least I'd try
G
You know I'd try
C
You know I'd try
G
You know I'd try
Bridge:
C
What are the words all the words that you're saying
Em
I wish I knew all the prayers that you're praying

Everywhere you go I wish that I could stand next to you
(Repeat)
Chorus 3/End:
C G
Well I'd try
C G
Well I'd try
C
You know I'd try

Try
C
You know I'd try
G
You know I'd try
