Dm                     F
 I know she said it's alright

Bb                               F
   But you can make it up next time

Dm                       F
I know she knows it's not right

Bb                          F
   There ain't no use in lying

Dm                      F
Maybe she thinks I know something

       Bb                           F
Maybe maybe, she thinks it's fine

Dm                   F
Maybe she knows something I don't

       Bb            C
I'm so, I'm so tired, I'm so tired of trying
[Chorus]
F                       C
  It seems to me that maybe

Dm                        A
  It pretty much always means no

   Bb                  C                   F            C
So don't tell me you might just let it go

F                        C
  And often times we're lazy

Dm                      A
   It seems to stand in my way

    Bb                 C
Cause no one, no, not no one

                     F             C
Likes to be let down
[Verse 2] (there are rhythm changes in this verse)
Dm (hold)               F (hold)
I know she loves the sunrise

Bb (hold)                         F (hold)
   No longer sees it with her sleeping eyes

    Dm (hold)                         F (hold)
And I know that when she said she's gonna try

Bb (hold)                           F (hold)
Well it might not work because of other ties and

Dm                            F
I know she usually has some other ties

    Bb                               F
And I wouldn't want to break 'em, nah, I wouldn't want to break 'em

Dm                       F
   Maybe she'll help me to untie this but

Bb              C
Until then well, I'm gonna have to lie too
[Chorus]
F                       C

The harder that you try baby, the further you'll fall

Just like your tree, down by the water, baby I shall not move
