Im Trying
Diamond Rio
[Intro] C D (x2) [Verse 1] She said I’m not pointing fingers He said yes you are Cause you wouldn’t bring it up if you weren’t If I told you I’d been walking Out in the dark night thinking Would you take as truth this alcoholic’s word I can’t change what’s done is done But I can tell you this [Chorus 1] Not a day goes by that I Don’t curse myself and all my sins And I need you to hold on to While this part of me is dying And though I haven’t kicked the demons That haunt me I’m trying I’m trying [Verse 2] She sat down on the floor And said I wish I was stronger Right now I feel fragile as glass I want to believe you Believe what’s held you has freed you And I hate these doubts that keep on coming back My parent’s think I’m crazy For staying here this long [Chorus 2] But there’s nothing more I want for us Than to prove to them they’re wrong I don’t want to be afraid I don’t want to think you’re lying And though I haven’t found the faith That I need I’m trying I’m trying He asked do you want me to leave Cause if you do you know I will But she said much to his disbelief Nooo I love you still Ooooh I love you still He said I don’t know why I’ve been the fool But I can tell you this [Chorus 3] Not a day goes by that I Don’t curse myself and all my sins Then he dropped down to his knees By now they both were crying He said I haven’t been the man I want to be but I’m trying I’m trying I’m trying Oh I’m trying
