F G Bb F


[Verse 1]
F              G
You are just a bee-sting
Bb
Swollen in my chest
F              G
Something must have died for
Bb
You to be my best yet


[Verse 2]
F                 G
A new accomodation
Bb
To go out on my own
F                    G
Civilised the stars that
Bb
Only shine alone


[Chorus]
F             G         Bb
I tried, I tried, I tried
F             G         Bb
I tried, I tried, I tried


[Verse 3]
F                       G
Bloated beating heartache
Bb
Your face singes mine
F                       G
Mutual decision
Bb
To disconnect the phone-line


[Verse 4]
F                             G
I reinforce the railway track
Bb
Which has sometimes stayed
F                            G
But I made them too strong
Bb
For your wild ways, oh


[Chorus]
F             G         Bb
I tried, I tried, I tried
F             G         Bb
I tried, I tried, I tried

F             G         Bb
I tried, I tried, I tried
F             G         Bb
I tried, I tried, I tried
