Daniel Johnston Try To Love
In my fantasy
You were there with me
I turned towards the mirror
And there’s nothing there
I sit in a chair
Washing my underwear
Thinking all along
You were of good cheer
F G C C7/Bb bass
And I am going to try to love
And I am going to rise above
So begins the star
There’s a spark in my heart
But you just stayed away from my memory
I try to get it right
Lay down a song
But there’s something wrong with my song
And I am going to try to love
And I am going to rise above
Baby you’re the one
Same as any other
And I really tried
But I’ve been denied
Crazy as it seems
In the hall of broken dreams
Till there’s nothing left
But an empty eggshell
And I am going to try to love
And I am going to rise above
Saw you in my movie
Like you really cared
I turned towards the mirror
And there’s nothing there
You were on my mind
I tried to unwind
To a better atmosphere of good cheer
And I am going to try to love
And I am going to rise above
I am going to try to love
And I am going to rise above
