Lasso The Band Perry
The other versions are good but they have a few mistakes/omissions, notably an Em from
the verse and a Cm from the bridge. Thanks to the others that came before me.
These are the bare chords. For added effect, change your D's to Dsus4's and hammer your
C's with the second finger.
Intro: G D C (x2)
Verse 1:
When I firs[C]t laid ey[C]es on y[G]ou
Well, the n[Em]ight just fe[D]lt so o[C]dd
You looked at [C]me and the s[C]tars lined u[G]p
So I th[Em]ought I'd h[D]eard from G[C]od
And I gave him my best shot
Chorus:
[G]Loving y[D]ou was like [C]throwing a l[G]asso
a[C]round a t[G]ornado I t[C]ried to hold [D]on to
[G]Took a rid[D]e on a [C]tilt-a-whir[G]l
that sits on t[C]op of the w[G]orld Man, I tho[C]ught I could sh[D]ow you
I've alwa[Em]ys been afr[D]aid of flyi[C]ng
But you ca[C]n't blame a [D]girl for tryin[G]g
(Intro Chords 2x)
Verse 2:
Felt like a p[C]earl when I was [C]holding your ha[G]nd
So p[Em]recious [D]I for[C]got

And you were [Em]everything[D] I'm n[C]ot
Still I, gave it my best shot
Chorus:
[G]Loving y[D]ou was like [C]throwing a l[G]asso
a[C]round a t[G]ornado I t[C]ried to hold [D]on to
[G]Took a tur[D]n on a [C]high trapez[G]e
swinging [C]over the de[G]ep, I th[C]ought I could s[D]how you
I've alwa[Em]ys been afr[D]aid of flyi[C]ng
But you can't[C] blame a gir[Am]l for tryin[D]g
Bridge:
[C]Like a vine[C] bends a tree[G] to the ground
[D]I won't hold you down
I [C]tried to climb[C] just as high
B[G]ut I found all the c[D]louds touch the[C] ground
In this s[Cm]mall town
Instr: G D C G C G D
End Chorus:
[G] [F] [C] [G] [C]
Took [G]a ride on a high trapeze swinging over the deep
I t[C]hought I [D]could show you

But you can't[Am] blame a gi[D]rl for try[G]ing
