[Intro 1]
[Bm][C][D][Em]
Bone Thugs, A[Bm]kon, [C]yeah
[D][Em]
[Bm]You know thoug[C]h nothin' come easy
[D]You gotta try[Em] real, real hard
[Bm]I tr[C]ied hard,
[D]but I guess I got[Em]ta try harder

[Chorus 1]
I [Bm]tried so [C]hard
Can't seem to [D]get away from mi[Em]sery
Man, I [Bm]tried so [C]hard
Will always [D]be a victim of [Em]these streets
It ain't my [Bm]fault 'cause [C]I
try to get a[D]way, but trouble fol[Em]lows me
And still I [Bm]try so h[C]ard,
Hopin' one [D]day they'll come and res[Em]cue me
But un[Bm]til [C]then I'll be posted up
right [D]here rain, sleet, [Em]hail, snow
But un[Bm]til [C]then I'll be posted up right h[D]ere
with my heat, [Em]gettin' dough

[Verse 1]
First, let me ex[Bm]plain
that I'm just a black [C]man
And I come from the dark side,
so I'm [D]havin' a hard time stay[Em]in' on track, man
My mind be [Bm]racin',
and I don't even know [C]what I'm chasin' yet
Been in and out of re[D]lationships
I'm startin' to [Em]see that it's me
where the complications at
But I'm [Bm]layin' back, prayin'
[C]that you give that piece of mind to me
I [D]thought I was right, but really I'm [Em]wrong
But again, I was too blind to see
[Bm]I was in the fast lane[C] chasin' my dream
And then it [D]seemed
when the fame and cash [Em]came,
they just got me
Goin' [Bm]crazy [C](lately, lately)[D]
[Em]Lately I been so faded trying to e[Bm]rase it
but I just can't
[C]'Cause the drama just grows greater
And I [D]been in so many collisions
[Em]by puttin' shit off till later

[Chorus 2]
I [Bm]tried so [C]hard
Can't seem to [D]get away from mi[Em]sery
Man, I [Bm]tried so [C]hard
Will always [D]be a victim of [Em]these streets
It ain't my [Bm]fault 'cause [C]I
try to get a[D]way, but trouble fol[Em]lows me
And still I [Bm]try so h[C]ard
Hopin' one [D]day they'll come and res[Em]cue me
But un[Bm]til [C]then I'll be posted up
right [D]here rain, sleet, [Em]hail, snow
But un[Bm]til [C]then I'll be posted up right h[D]ere
with my heat, [Em]gettin' dough

[Verse 2]
It's like I'm takin' [Bm]five steps forward,
[C]and ten steps back
Tryin' to [D]get ahead of the game
but I [Em]can't seem to get it on track
And I keep [Bm]runnin' away the ones that
[C]say they love me the most
How could [D]I create the distance
[Em]when it's supposed to be close?
And [Bm]uh, I just don't know
But [C]I be out here fightin' demons, a[D]nd
It's like the curse
That [Em]I can't shake this part of Cleveland, and
[Bm]Lord, would you help [C]me, and stop this pain?
[D]I keep inflictin' on [Em]my family (family)
[Bm]Hustlin' and gamblin[C]', drinkin' and scramblin'
[D]And losin' sight of
[Em]what I supposed to be handlin'
[Bm]It's hard to manage
[C]'cause every day's a challenge and, man
And I'm [D]slippin', can't lose
my bal[Em]ance and tryin' not to panic

[Chorus 3]
I [Bm]tried so [C]hard
Can't seem to [D]get away from mi[Em]sery
Man, I [Bm]tried so [C]hard
Will always [D]be a victim of [Em]these streets
It ain't my [Bm]fault 'cause [C]I
try to get a[D]way, but trouble fol[Em]lows me
And still I [Bm]try so h[C]ard
Hopin' one [D]day they'll come and res[Em]cue me
But un[Bm]til [C]then I'll be posted up
right [D]here rain, sleet, [Em]hail, snow
But un[Bm]til [C]then I'll be posted up right h[D]ere
with my heat, [Em]gettin' dough

[Verse 3]
[Bm]I see things won't[C] change,
I'm stuck in the [D]game
As soon as I get out,
[Em]it keeps pullin' me back, man
[Bm]Got me doin' dirty[C] dirt
So used to this hus[D]tling money
that I don't [Em]understand no nine to five work
[Bm]Studied on the stree[C]ts,
hustlas know what I mean
[D]Thugstas ballin' before [Em]us,
I'm tryin' to make that major league
[Bm]So we never leav[C]e,
never 'til the sun came [D]up
[Em]Gotta get it, nope, no leavin', no [Bm]grudge
[C]Today games they play,
gotta [D]go hard to get what [Em]you put in
If you fall off, then it's [Bm]all on [C]you
Gotta watch what you [D]sign too
[Em]Try so hard, but I won't (pull trough)

[Chorus 4]
I [Bm]tried so [C]hard
Can't seem to [D]get away from mi[Em]sery
Man, I [Bm]tried so [C]hard
Will always [D]be a victim of [Em]these streets
It ain't my [Bm]fault 'cause [C]I
try to get a[D]way, but trouble fol[Em]lows me
And still I [Bm]try so h[C]ard
Hopin' one [D]day they'll come and res[Em]cue me
But un[Bm]til [C]then I'll be posted up
right [D]here rain, sleet, [Em]hail, snow
But un[Bm]til [C]then I'll be posted up right h[D]ere
with my heat, [Em]gettin' dough
