Trying To Let Her

Ruston Kelly


Tom: D

  D                      A
I been walking down the same old road
    Bm                   A
I been living with a lonely ghost
   D              A            D
Seems like it's been this way forever
   D               A
Running east and running west
    Bm                 A
The heart that beats inside my chest
      D             A             D
It ain't been the same since I met her


[Chorus]
 Bm               G
She's trying to love me
 A             D
I'm trying to let her


[Verse 2]
    D                A
A gypsy man, that's who I am
    Bm                         A
Every night in your town with the same old band
     D           A           D
I guess I ain't known any better
   D              A
And she's a rose among the weeds
    Bm               A
And I'm the joke among the thieves
     D               A           A
Like a saint who's taking in a sinner


[Chorus]
  Bm              G
She's trying to love me
   A              D
And I'm trying to let her


[Bridge]
  A           D   A    Bm          G             D
Here in the roadside motel room I, I feel a vacancy
 A          D    A      Bm            G           D     A
Lying in a bed that's built for two with no one next to me
 D  A  Bm
Oh, oh, oh
 A           D    A    Bm          G              D
Here in the roadside motel room I, I feel a vacancy
 A           D    A      Bm        G        D    A
Who is this stranger in my mirror staring back at me?


[Outro]
     D                   A              D
So, do you really wanna live like this forever?
                 Bm           G
She's trying to love you, boy
A               D
Why don't you let her?
 A              D
Why don't you let her?
 A              Bm
Why don't you let her?
 G    A            D
Oh, why don't you?
  A           D
Why don't you?
   A          D
Why don't you let her?
