Try - Dolly Parton

Intro ? 
          G
I have chased after rainbows
          D
I?ve captured one or two
          G
I?ve reached for the stars 
                  C
And I have even held a few
          G
I?ve walked that lonesome valley
          D
Topped the mountains, sewed a sky
          G
I?ve laughed and I have cried
          D7
But I have always tried
                  G
'Cause I?ve always been a dreamer
          D
And dreams are special things
          G
But dreams are of no value
          C
If they?re not equipped with wings
          G
So secure yourself for climbing
          D
Make ready for the sky
          G
Don?t let your chance go by
                    D7
You?ll make it if you try
   G              D                C
So try to be the first one up the mountain
     G               D             C
The highest flying dreamer in the sky
    C         D                 G
And try your best to be an inspiration
  C                                 D7
Brothers that are still afraid and shy
     G              D               C
And try to make the most of every moment
        G            D             C
'Cause if you never try you never win
    C               D              G
So try each day to try a little harder
     C               D7            G
And if you fail, get up and try again
               G
You know nothing is impossible
          D
If you can just believe
          G
Don?t live your life in shackles
          C
When faith can be the key
          G                          D
The winner's one who keeps determination in his eyes
G                         D7
Who?s not afraid to fly and not afraid to try
    G             D                C
So try to be the first one up the mountain
     G              D                 C
And try to be the first to touch the sky
      C                  D                 G
And don?t let somebody tell you, you can?t do it
     C                                D7
And if they say that, show em it?s a lie
     G              D                   C
And if you fail at first just keep on trying
          G            D                C
 ?Cause you are not a failure in god?s eyes
     C                    D              G
So spread your wings and let the magic happen
                C          D7                G
?Cause you?ll never really know if you don?t try
And the first step is the one that?s always hardest
             C           D7                G
But you?ll never really know if you don?t try
             G
You have to try
