Verse:
A         D      A           D         A Gbm A Gbm
Raspberry seeds, stuck in between your baby teeth
A         D      A             D     A  Gbm A Gbm
Blueberry juice, staining your tulip cheeks
E                                        A Gbm A Gbm
Baby’s first steps, holding on to my two legs
E                                       A Gbm A Gbm
and I was only 21, your mother was only 18

Chorus:
        A                          E
And I’m trying, trying harder than I’ve tried before
             A                          E
oh baby, I’m trying. Trying harder than I’ve tried before

Down with the training wheels, this family learns by scraping their knees
A             D             A             D               A Gbm A Gbm
You have your mother’s eyes but your face looks a lot like mine
A             D A D         A Gbm A Gbm
We only take video of memories
A              D       A         D    A Gbm A Gbm
Your mother is 21, and I turned 25 today

oh baby, I’m trying. Trying harder than I’ve tried before
