Strum
D-DU-UDU
I  walk the line
 Leave it all behind
 I've been waiting  forever
Lets  go back in time
 When I could read your mind
 Still I've been waiting
It  took the seasons going  by
 To know  its not my fault
I  tried to be perfect,  tried to be honest
 Tried to be everything  that you ever wanted
I  tried to be stronger,  tried to be smarter
 Tried to be everything  but you
Its  been so long
 Since you've been home
 I used to wait  up forever
I  used to say a prayer
 Wishing you were there
 And I'm still waiting
You  told me once
 You'd show up
 But I fell  for that
 Before I fell  to pieces
Then  I woke up
 To no one,
 Just a picture  of Jesus
 And a house  left in pieces
It  took the seasons going  by
 To know  its not my fault
I  tried to be perfect,  tried to be honest
 Tried to be everything  that you ever wanted
I  tried to be stronger,  tried to be smarter
 Tried to be everything  but you
I  wanted you
I  need you
I  want to believe  you
I  wanted you
I  need you
I  want to believe  you
 HALF CHORUS:(softer strumming)
I  tried to be perfect,  tried to be honest
 tried to be everything  but you
 (back to regular strumming)
I  tried to be perfect,  tried to be honest
 Tried to be everything  that you ever wanted
I  tried to be stronger,  tried to be smarter
 Tried to be everything  but you
I  tried to be perfect,  tried to be honest
 Tried to be everything  that you ever wanted
I  tried to be stronger,  tried to be smarter
 Tried to be everything  but you
