[Intro]
Cm7 Bb F

[Verse 1]
Cm7
I was waiting for the bus one day
                  Bb                                              F
Watched a fight between an artsy couple escalate
Cm7
Strawberry cheeks flushed with defeated rage
                                Bb                                  F
Then he spilled his coffee as he frantically explained

[Verse 2]
Cm7
Maybe if you took a breath you would hear me when I talk to you
 Bb
Threw her necklace in his face
 F
Eyes so bright with disappointment
Cm7                                                                                         Bb
I saw something inside her break everybody knows the feeling
N.C.
Suddenly he started screaming

[Chorus]
Cm7                                    Bb
"Caroline, I swear to God I tried
                            F
I swear to God I tried
Cm7                                   Bb
Caroline, I swear to God I tried
                             F
I swear to God I tried
Cm7                    Bb
I swear to God I tried,
                            F
I swear to God I tried"

[Verse 3]
Cm7
Ripped the hem of her skirt as she ran
                         Bb                                                            F
Panicking and weaving through the crowds on Oxford Street
Cm7
Watched his world dissolve in his hands
                       Bb                                                       N.C.
Tried to roll a blem then put his head between his knees

[Verse 4]
Cm7
Maybe if she took a breath she would know I did it all for her
Bb
Agony and hints of sage
F
Her eyes blind with disappointment
Cm7                                                                                          Bb
I couldn’t recognize her face shards of glass live in this feeling
N.C.
Have to somehow stop her leaving

[Chorus]
Cm7                                    Bb
"Caroline, I swear to God I tried
                            F
I swear to God I tried
Cm7                                    Bb
Caroline, I swear to God I tried
                            F
I swear to God I tried
Cm7                                   Bb
Caroline, I swear to God I tried
                            F
I swear to God I tried

[Outro]
Cm7                     Bb
I swear to God I tried
                             F
I swear to God I tried
Cm7                     Bb
I swear to God I tried,
                             F
I swear to God I tried"
