Am               C       
These things are eventual
    F                    G                         
And I can't be too careful
Am                   C                            
There's nothing more gradual
     F                   G                          
Than what I choose to show
Am                           C                                   
And you've been patient with me, alright
F                       G                          
But does that end tonight?

        A5       C5       D5                          
I will brave any trial by fire
A5       C5      D5                      
But I'm just not ready
A5       C5     D5        G5                             
To fall through your thin ice
A5           C5        D5                           
I'll explain myself in time
A5       C5      D5                      
But I'm just not ready
A5      C5   D5      G5                      
To make that sacrifice

C5                                  
But I'm trying like I said I might

Am                C               
These things are unusual for me
F             G                
I should explain
Am             C                               
No mind should have ever dreamt
F                     G                       
Of such fictitious pain

Am                 C                                  
There's a story in there somewhere
F                     G                         
But I'm not sure you care

                              
        A5       C5       D5                          
I will brave any trial by fire

But I'm just not ready
A5       C5     D5        G5                             
To fall through your thin ice
A5           C5        D5                           
I'll explain myself in time
A5       C5      D5                      
But I'm just not ready
A5      C5   D5      G                      
To make that sacrifice

 G                               C  
But I'm trying like I said I might
                              F 
But I don't trust this exercise
                                 C 
But I'm trying like I said I might

C           F                         C           
I might, I might trust it this one time (x4)

G                             C                               
But I don't trust this exercise

A5      C5    D5                                           
But I'm trying (Trying like I said I might)
A5      C5    D5                                                     
Just like I said I might (Trying like I said I might)
      A5        C5  D5                                            
Yeah, I'm trying (But I don't trust this exercise)
A5        C5     D5     G5                                                             
Just like I said I might (Just like I said I might)
G                        Am
I'm trying like I said I might
