Trying

E                      G#m                 C#m          A
Life can feel like a red light screaming "Go!"
E                               G#m         C#m         A
And every day means an answer I don't know.

E                  G#m
   This world can make you want to fake it
           C#m                       A
And nobody wants to face it alone.
       E                            G#m                C#m          A
It’s hard to shake that feeling that your heart’s not home.

[Chorus]
                 E
I'm trying to live,
            B
Trying to hope,
            C#m
Trying to love,
            A
Trying to cope,
E                    B          C#m     F#
Life's a war that few of us survive.
        A                          B           E
And I'm just trying to make it out alive.

[Interlude]
G#m     C#m     A

[Verse]
E                   G#m C#m     A
   Everyone has a story to be told,
E                            G#m            C#m         A
   And every tongue has a lie it could expose.

E                  G#m
   This world describes all the treatments,
        C#m                       A
To keep all the secrets you want,
E                           G#m                 C#m               A
We've learned how to think without our minds turned on.

[Chorus]
                 E
I'm trying to live,
            B
Trying to hope,
            C#m
Trying to love,
            A
Trying to cope,
E                     B         C#m     F#
Life's a war that few of us survive.
        A                          B           C#m
And I'm just trying to make it out alive.

[Verse]
C#m             B                   A                    E
The pain we go through is what makes us who we are.
        A                        C#m
And if we hold each other through,
       A                         B
the deepest darkest parts...

[Chorus]
                  E
Then we can live,
                  B
Then we can hope,
                  C#m
Then we can love,
                  A
Then we can cope,
E               B          C#m          A    B
Life is not a jump it is a head first dive!

                 E
I'm trying to live,
            B
Trying to hope,
            C#m
Trying to love,
            A
Trying to cope,
E                     B         C#m     F#
Life's a war that few of us survive.
        A                          B           E
And I'm just trying to make it out alive.
