 G
I have been trying

      C     D            G
To write a haiku for you

   C            D
Some things I just can't do

 G                   C
Maybe you're beyond

         D           G
Ancient Asian poetry

 C       D
Or maybe it's just me

 G
I have been trying

     C          D        Em         A
To get this haiku just right all night

       Em      A      D
For you; alright I'm through

 G
Maybe this poem

        C           D            G
Was lost in the sauce we spilled

   C        D
That never got refilled

 G
I've never thought much

        C      D          G
Of formulaic verse anyway

  C             D
And rhymes are not my fort

 G
I have been trying

     C          D        Em         A
To get this haiku just right all night

       Em      A      D
For you; alright I'm through
CHORUS:
F          Dm      G       C
I'm trying not to try too hard

    F              G          C
But you're hard to write down right

F    Dm         G        C
So I pen these trite attempts

   F          G       C
At haikus for you tonight
SOLO: G C D x2
 G
Lah dah dee diddum

      C       D            G
Lah dah dee doom doo ditto

  C          D
Dum doo lah dee doh

 G     N.C.
There, that's sufficient

      C       D        Em
I wrote a haiku for you

            A                       Em
Well I tried at least, and that's not so bad

         A               D
I'm working here; can that be said for you
CHORUS:
F          Dm      G       C
I'm trying not to try too hard

    F              G          C
But you're hard to write down right

F    Dm         G        C
So I pen these trite attempts

   F          G      C    D#dim
At haikus for you tonight

F            Dm        G       C
Words don't work like Webster says

      F      G        C
They trip me up all night

F         Dm        G         C
I'm just trying to write for you

     F              G          C
But you're hard to write down right
