Try Lyrics

[Intro]
One, two, three, four

[Verse 1]
I could say nothing hurts, that would be a lie
I could say something more you would deny
I'd beg for forgiveness but I didn't do the crime
I will try, try, baby, I will try
I will try, try, baby, I will try
Like this, one, two, three, four

[Verse 2]
Oh, bound by ambition, burned beneath the light
Oh, open to a tug of war tonight
Oh, I think you would've flown if you didn't want me home
I would try, try, baby, I will try
I'll try, try, baby, I will try

[Bridge]
Here comes the guilt rising up
And I don't know, don't know why
The only word I have an issue with is goodbye
Oh, and good men, good men don't have to pretend

[Harmonica Solo]
[Verse 3]
Oh, lifted with the elements earth, sea and sky
Hidden like the witness in your eyes
Our life is a canyon, live it deep and wide
I will try, try, baby, I will try
Oh, try, try, baby, I will try
Try, baby, I will try
One, two, three, four

[Outro]
Try, try, try (one, two, three, four)
Try, try, try
(Again?)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
