[Verse 1]
G            C/G              G        C/G
   Here I am standing at your window again
G               C/G             G          C/G
   Waiting for you to say go away or come in
        G                   C/G
I'm your locked door's worst knocker
         G              C/G
I'm your curtain's best friend

[Chorus]
    Am                             D                 G   C/G  G
I'm trying hard to love you - you don't make it easy babe
    Am                            D                    G  C/G G
I'm trying hard to love you - I'm lookin' for an easy way

[Verse 2]
G                    C/G             G         C/G
  Your friends ask about me, you say I can be found
G                        C/G               G               C/G
  with the cheap romance novels with their spines battered down
       G              C/G           G           C/G
Oh the   heart has no bones you say so it won't break
        G            C/G           G           C/G
but the   purpose of lovin' is the pounding it takes

[Chorus]
    Am                             D                 G   C/G  G
I'm trying hard to love you - you don't make it easy babe
    Am                            D                    G  C/G G
I'm trying hard to love you - I'm lookin' for an easy way

[Verse 2]
G                     C/G               G              C/G
  the ropes that have bound me leave no marks by their knots
    G                     C/G             G            C/G
and   though they’re your hair that don't mean I'm not caught
           G              C/G               G                 C/G
I know the   sound of the handcuffs as they scrape across the floor
         G                  C/G             G              C/G
but that   new thing you've got I've got no clue what it's for

[Chorus]
    Am                             D                 G   C/G  G
I'm trying hard to love you - you don't make it easy babe
    Am                            D                    G  C/G G
I'm trying hard to love you - I'm lookin' for an easy way

[Verse 3]
     G                 C/G            G              C/G
With   fortune's rocks millstones you hang round my throat
      G              C/G             G           C/G
and a   brick for my window weighted down with a note
        G               C/G             G           C/G
Well, I   hope you find someone just as hard as you come
        G             C/G             G      C/G
in this   hard world sadly that's so easily done

[Chorus]
    Am                             D                 G   C/G  G
I'm trying hard to love you - you don't make it easy babe
    Am                            D                    G  C/G G
I'm trying hard to love you - I'm lookin' for an easy way
    Am                             D                 G   C/G  G
I'm trying hard to love you - you don't make it easy babe
    Am                                D                 G   C/G  G
I'm trying hard to love you - There's gotta be an easy way
