Verse 1:
    C              G
When I first laid eyes on you
 G                     D       C 
Well, the night just felt so odd   
              G           D           C
You looked at me and the stars lined up  
      Em         D          C// 
So I thought I'd heard from God 
And I gave him my best shot  


Chorus:
  G     D            C           G     C       G 
Loving you was like throwing a lasso around a tornado   
   C       Dsus4  
I tried to hold on to 
  G     D        C        G                 C          G 
Took a ride on a tilt-a-whirl that sits on top of the world
          C            Dsus4
Man, I thought I could show you
        G         D          Em// 
I've always been afraid of flying 
         G            Am            G G D Dsus4 D C Csus2 C (2x) 
But you can't blame a girl for trying  


Verse 2:
              C                             G 
Felt like a pearl when I was holding your hand
             D   C
So precious I forgot
                     G                    D      C 
You could have any girl but I only wanted one man
          Em           D      C
And you were everything I'm not
Still I gave it my best shot  


Chorus:
  G     D            C           G     C       G 
Loving you was like throwing a lasso around a tornado
    C       Dsus4 
I tried to hold on to
  G      D        C        G            C         G 
Took a turn on a high trapeze swinging over the deep
  C              Dsus4
I thought I could show you
        G          D          Em// 
I've always been afraid of flying
          C             Am        D 
But you can't blame a girl for trying

 Bridge:
 Cadd9                    G 
Like a vine bends a tree to the ground
 D 
I won't hold you down   
Cadd9 
I tried to climb just as high
     G               D                 Cadd9 
But I found all the clouds touch the ground
          C 
In this small town

 
 Instr:  G   D C x2 


End Chorus:
 G       F         C     G      C                 G 
Took a ride on a high trapeze swinging over the deep
    C        D 
I thought I could show you
            G           D/F#     C 
That I've always been afraid of flying
           G          Am                G G D Dsus4 D C C Csus2 C 
But you can't blame a girl for trying
    C                  G G D Dsus4 D C C Csus2 C  (repeat pattern once)
No, you can't blame a girl                   heeeey
