Intro: F...F/C...F...F/F...F...F/C...F...F/C
F         F/C              F      F/F
here I am standing at your window again

F           F/C           F            F/F
waiting for you to say go away or come in

        F                   F/C
I'm your locked door's worst knocker

         F             F/C
I'm your curtain's best friend

    Dm                        G                      F-F/C-F
I'm trying hard to love you - you don't make it easy Babe

    Dm                        G                       F-F/C-F
I'm trying hard to love you - I'm looking for an easy way

F                F/C              F         F/F
your friends ask about me you say I can be found

F                      F/C               F               F/F
with the cheap romance novels with their spines battered down

       F            F/C           F           F/F
oh the heart has no bones you say so it won't break

        F           F/C          F           F/F
but the purpose of loving is the pounding it takes

    Dm                        G                      F-F/C-F
I'm trying hard to love you - you don't make it easy Babe

    Dm                        G                       F-F/C-F
I'm trying hard to love you - I'm looking for an easy way

F                   F/C               F              F/F
the ropes that have bound me leave no marks by their knots

    F                   F/C             F            F/F
and though they’re your hair that don't mean I'm not caught

           F            F/C               F                 F/F
I know the sound of the handcuffs as they scrape across the floor

         F                F/C             F              F/F
but that new thing you've got I've got no clue what it's for

    Dm                        G                      F-F/C-F
I'm trying hard to love you - you don't make it easy Babe

    Dm                        G                       F-F/C-F
I'm trying hard to love you - I'm looking for an easy way

     F               F/C            F              F/F
with fortune's rocks millstones you hang round my throat

      F            F/C             F           F/F
and a brick for my window weighted down with a note

       F             F/C             F           F/F
Well I hope you find someone just as hard as you come

        F          F/C             F      F/F
in this hard world sadly that's so easily done

    Dm                        G                      F-F/C-F
I'm trying hard to love you - you don't make it easy Babe

    Dm                        G                       F-F/C-F
I'm trying hard to love you - I'm looking for an easy way

    Dm                        G                      F-F/C-F
I'm trying hard to love you - you don't make it easy Babe

    Dm                        G                        F-F/C-F
I'm trying hard to love you - There's gotta be an easy way
