         G
I have been trying
Am         D          G
To write a haiku for you
Am               D
Some things I just can’t do

G               Am
Maybe you’re beyond
D              G
Ancient asian poetry
Am              D
Or maybe it’s just me

                  G
I have been trying
Am       D         Em             A
To get this haiku just right all night
Em            A        D
For you; alright I’m through

              G
Maybe this poem
Am            D           G
Was lost in the sauce we spilled
Am                D
That never got refilled

                G
I’ve never thought much
Am               D              G
Of formulaic verse anyway
Am                  D
And rhymes are not my forte

                   G
I have been trying
Am          D       Em      A
To get this haiku just right all night
Em           A          D
For you; alright I’m through

CHORUS:
F           Dm        G     C
I’m trying not to try too hard
F             G          C
But you’re hard to write down right
F            Dm         G   C
So I pen these tried attempts
F            G                      C
At haikus for you tonight

G  (N.C.)
There, that’s sufficient
Am           D             Em
I wrote a haiku for you
A           Em
Well I tried at least, and that’s not so bad
A                       D
I’m working here; can that be said for you

CHORUS:
F              Dm     G    C
I’m trying not to try too hard
F             G     C
But you’re hard to write down right

So I pen these tried attempts
F            G        Am          D
At haikus for you tonight

F            Dm         G        C
Words don’t work like Webster says
F           G       C
They trip me up all night
F            Dm          G     C
I’m just trying to write for you
F          G          C
But you’re hard to write down right
