	        G 
I have been trying 
      C     D            G 
To write a haiku for you 
   C            D 
Some things I just can't do 

 G                   C 
Maybe you're beyond 
         D           G 
Ancient asian poetry 
 C       D 
Or maybe it's just me 

 G 
I have been trying 
     C          D        Em         A 
To get this haiku just right all night 
       Em      A      D 
For you; alright I'm through 

 G 
Maybe this poem 
        C           D            G 
Was lost in the sauce we spilled 
   C        D 
That never got refilled 

 G 
I've never thought much 
        C      D          G 
Of formulaic verse anyway 
  C             D 
And rhymes are not my forte 


 G 
I have been trying 
     C          D        Em         A 
To get this haiku just right all night 
       Em      A      D 
For you; alright I'm through
