Tried So Hard

[Verse 1]
Baby, watch your tongue
Those bullets come back to bite
I'll remember at dawn
Every dirty word you said tonight

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, oh, I was on your side
Can't you see I'm on your side?

[Chorus]
Can't you see I tried so hard to love you?
Tried so hard to figure you out
Can't you see I tried so hard to love you?
Tried so hard to figure you out

[Verse 2]
You put the passive in aggressive
You're not the type to hide
I keep my lips shut tight
You're worth the fight

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, oh, I am on your side
Can't you see I'm on your side?

[Chorus]
Can't you see I tried so hard to love you?
Tried so hard to figure you out
To figure you out

It's black and white
You never gave me a chance
You just scream and shout
(Scream and shout)

[Bridge]
We make better friends than lovers
We make matters worse as friends
But I'd do it again

[Instrumental]

You've got your doubts and I've got mine
But, baby, this ain't the end
I know that you're trouble
But I'd do it again

[Chorus]
Tried so hard to love you
Tried so hard to figure you out
To figure you out

It's black and white
You never gave me a chance
You just scream and shout
(Scream and shout)

We make better friends than lovers
We make matters worse as friends
But I'd do it again

(Hey!)
