So this is it
The final curtain call
My time here is over
I wish it was for good
This is goodbye
The final wave of hand
I wish I had the nerve
To say that I'm never coming back
It was a fight
I cried myself to sleep
For so many nights, I can't believe
That I've grown to be a boy
With nothing to my name
Except a guitar and no one else to blame

But I hope you know I try
Hope you know I try, to become a better man
I hope you know I never meant to hurt you
Never meant to make you cry
I hope you know I try
Hope you know I try, to become a better man
But with you in my life,
I don't think I ever can

The roadway is waiting
And I'm stuck debating
If I ever want to see you again
Cause I've grown num
This city means nothing without the love we used to have
And this is goodbye
The final wave of hand
I wish I had the nerve
To say that I'm never coming back again
Yeah, again

But I hope you know I try
Hope you know I try, to become a better man
I hope you know I never meant to hurt you
Never meant to make you cry
I hope you know I try
Hope you know I try, to become a better man
But with you in my life,
I don't think I ever can,
I ever can

[Guitar Solo]

Oh I hope you know I try
Hope you know I try, to become a better man
I hope you know I never meant to hurt you
Never meant to make you cry
I hope you know I try
Hope you know I try, to become a better man
But with you in my life,
I don't think I ever can
