 Gm
It's too soon to lay your hand on my head
 D#
It's too soon to clean the shame from your bed
 A#                         F/A
It's too soon, it's too soon
 Gm
It's too late to change the things that you did
 D#                                                A#
It's too late to say that you don't wanna be like your dad
             F/A
Angry like him

 Gm               D#           A#
Time can free you if you walk away
 Gm          D#             A#
Sorry isn't good enough to stay

Chorus:
           Gm    D#            A#
I got one tired heart and two tired eyes
         Gm    D#     A#
I'm too tired now to cry
        Gm   D#             A#
When a fire starts, it's an orange sky
         Gm   D#       A#
I'm too tired now to fly
   Gm       D#        A#
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, I tried
   Gm       D#        A#
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, I tried

It's too hard inside the room where we live
It's too hard to love a grown up kid
It's too hard, it's too hard
I'm too soft to know I often feel weak
It's so loud when you talk that
I don't even wanna speak
You never made space for me

Time can free you if you walk away
Sorry isn't good enough to stay

Chorus:
I got one tired heart and two tired eyes
I'm too tired now to cry
When a fire starts, it's an orange sky
I'm too tired now to fly
Ooh, I tried
Ooh, I tried
Ooh, I tried
Ooh, I tried

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, I tried
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, I tried
