Capo 3rd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

 I'm a lonely guy with a lonely life

 I got a full-time job and a part-time wife

 And the grindstone just goes on and on

 You're a lonely girl that’s a lonely wife

 You got a three bedroom and an empty life

 And you're not quite sure just where it all went wrong

 There are lots of reasons why we should turn and walk away

 But there's a whole lot ridin' on this love so baby what's ya say

Chorus

 Let's give it one good shot

 Let's really give it all we got

 We can take it nice and slow

 Baby don't you want to go back

 Where we had a chance

 And we danced our dance

 In a world where a heart could never shatter

 We might go down cryin'

 But at least our love will die

 Tryin' to matter, tryin' to matter

We've come a long way so don't forget

Let's don't throw our hands up yet

We've still got time to change our mind

Honey let's give it our best tonight

If we still ain't got it right

We can always, always say goodbye

Somewhere I guess we let go and lost a little ground

One solitary heartbeat can turn this thing around

Chorus

We might go down cryin'

At least wour love will die tryin

Tryin' to matter, tryin' to matter
