[Intro]
|D / / /|
 
 
[Verse 1]
   D
Dear God,
          F#m                       G
I’ve been trying awful hard to make You proud of me
       D
But it seems
    F#m                      G
The harder that I try, oh the harder it becomes
                       D
And I feel like giving up
F#m        G
Most of the time
 
 
[Verse 2]
    D
Dear God,
          F#m                        G
I’ve been chasing their approval and it’s killing me
      D
And I know
    F#m
The more I to try to prove
    G
The less I have to show
                     D
And I’m stuck inside my head
F#m         G
Most of the time
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
            Em
But, If I pray a little harder
     A
If I follow all the rules
  Em                     A
I wonder could I ever be enough
 
 
[Chorus]
         D         F#m
Cause I try and I try
        G               D
Just to fall back down again
                 F#m
And I ask myself why
     G                D
Do I try to chase the wind
         Bm            A
I should lean into the mystery
      G                  D
Maybe hope is found in a melody
     Bm    A    G
So I wanna try again
      Bm        A    G
Oh, I’m gonna try again
 
 
[Verse 3]
       D
Dear child,
           F#m                             G
I hope you know how much I love you and I’m proud of you
          D
Please believe
    F#m                                  G
The thoughts I have for you will never change or fade away
                               D
And when you felt like giving up
F#m      G
I never did
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
        Em
I’m not scared of imperfections
        A
Or the questions in your head
      Em                              A
Just know that you have always been enough
 
 
[Chorus]
    D         F#m
You tried and tried
      G               D
And I saw you wrestle with
                 F#m
Every how, every why...
       G           D
I was right there listening
        Bm            A
So just fall into the mystery
     G
I’ll meet you here in the melody
   Bm          A    G
try just to try again
   Bm              A    G
Oh child would you try again
   Bm            A     D
My child you can love again
