Lasso

Intro: G   D   C  (x2)

Verse 1:
           C        C      G
When I first laid eyes on you
           Em          D      C
Well, the night just felt so odd
              C           C           G
You looked at me and the stars lined up
       Em         D          C
So I thought I'd heard from God

And I gave him my best shot

Chorus:

G       D           C           G
Loving you was like throwing a lasso
 C        G         C            D
around a tornado I tried to hold on to
G         D      C          G
Took A ride on A tilt-A-whirl
              C          G              C              D
that sits on top of the world Man, I thought I could show you
         Em         D          C
I've always been afraid of flying
          C           D             G
But you can't blame a girl for trying

Verse 2:
             C               C              G
Felt like a pearl when I was holding your hand
    Em      D    C
So precious I forgot
                    C              C         G
You could have any girl but I only wanted one man
             Em        D     C
And you were everything I'm not

Still I, gave it my best shot

Chorus:

G       D           C           G
Loving you was like throwing a lasso
 C        G         C            D
around a tornado I tried to hold on to
G         D      C          G
Took a turn on a high trapeze
         C          G       C              D
swinging over the deep, I thought I could show you
         Em         D          C
I've always been afraid of flying
             C           Am         D
But you can't blame a girl for trying

Bridge:
C          C            G
Like a vine bends a tree to the ground
D
I won't hold you down
  C             C
I tried to climb just as high
 G                   D              C
But I found all the clouds touch the ground
         Cm
In this small town

End Chorus:
G       F         C     G      C
     G
Took a ride on a high trapeze swinging over the deep
   C        D
I thought I could show you
          Em           D          C
That I've always been afraid of flying
             Am         D         G
But you can't blame a girl for trying
