TRIED TO BE TRUE (Amy Ray)
--------------------------
[No capo; two chords make one measure, except in the guitar solo, where I
marked the durations.]
F[inGtroF] G F G F G
From Dmbaby to Gbest with Fno second Gtest
F Those little Gstorms destrFoy you G
DmHere is the Gfame they Fpromised to Ggive you
F Taking the Gplace of my hFand now G
Well, did you FtryF to be Gtrue? G
What separates Fme from Gyou? F G
What separates Fme from Gyou now? F G
Did you borrow the soul, the soul that you sell now?
What does your conscience tell you?
Where are the demons of your desire?
Why does my love destroy you?
I said I tried to be true,
What separates me from you?
I said I Ftried, tried to Fbe Gtrue G
What separates Fme from Gyou now? F G
What separates Fme from Gyou now? F G

So where is the fame, where is the fortune?
Where is the world that denies you?
Who is to blame when my heart finally forfeits
To a road that will only misguide you?
Well did we try to be true?
What separates me from you?
Well did we try, try to be true?
What separates me from you?
What separates me from you now?
[Guitar solo again]
I Dmbought my lGove a hFunger G more Dmprecious thGan a stFone G
(Where is the world that denies you)
DmAll these fGatal flFowers, G Dm did IG misgFuide you? G
(Where is the world that denies you)
