I tried to be perfect
But nothing was worth it
I dont believe it makes me real
I thought itd be easy
But no one believes me
I meant all the things I said
If you believe its in my soul
Id say all the words that I know
Just to see if it would show
That Im trying to let you know
That Im better off on my own
This place is so empty
My thoughts are so tempting
I dont know how it got so bad
Sometimes its so crazy
That nothing can save me
But its the only thing that I have
If you believe its in my soul
Id say all the words that I know
Just to see if it would show
That Im trying to let you know
That Im better off on my own
On my own
I tried to be perfect
It just wasnt worth it
Nothing could ever be so wrong
Its hard to believe me
It never gets easy
I guess I knew that all along
If you believe its in my soul
Id say all the words that I know
Just to see if it would show
That Im trying to let you know
That Im better off on my own
Notes:
Deryck is play this squier/fender custom telecaster and Tom is play his Goldtop Les Paul.
Both of their tones are twangy. Deryck's is clean...but has distortion on at the same time.
Tom's tone isn't very bright..but kind of mellow and wht i would discribe as "lifeless"
sounds like a stratocaster on the bridge/middle pickup with tone on 0 if you ask me.

I tried to be perfect
But nothing was worth it
I dont believe it makes me real
I thought itd be easy
But no one believes me
I meant all the things I said
If you believe its in my soul
Id say all the words that I know
Just to see if it would show
That Im trying to let you know
That Im better off on my own
This place is so empty
My thoughts are so tempting
I dont know how it got so bad
Sometimes its so crazy
That nothing can save me
But its the only thing that I have
If you believe its in my soul
Id say all the words that I know
Just to see if it would show
That Im trying to let you know
That Im better off on my own
On my own
I tried to be perfect
It just wasnt worth it
Nothing could ever be so wrong
Its hard to believe me
It never gets easy
I guess I knew that all along
If you believe its in my soul
Id say all the words that I know
Just to see if it would show
That Im trying to let you know
That Im better off on my own

(mute the guitar when guitar 1 plays the last chord)
I tried to be perfect
But nothing was worth it
I dont believe it makes me real
I thought itd be easy
But no one believes me
I meant all the things I said
If you believe its in my soul
Id say all the words that I know
Just to see if it would show
That Im trying to let you know
That Im better off on my own
This place is so empty

That nothing can save me
But its the only thing that I have
If you believe its in my soul
Id say all the words that I know
Just to see if it would show

That Im better off on my own
On my own
I tried to be perfect

Nothing could ever be so wrong

If you believe its in my soul
