I’m Tryin’
I’m Tryin’
Trace Adkins
I'm Tryin' works as a country selection rather than an automatic party anthem. This is a deeper cut for listeners who know Trace Adkins well. Treat it as a performance piece, not a guaranteed group singalong.

Performance tip
I'm Tryin' will land more clearly if you plan a breath within the longest line, which is about 16 words. It will give I'm Tryin' a clearer arc from the first section to the last.
Should you sing it?
I'm Tryin' rewards a singer who knows the lyric well enough to focus on the lyric’s point of view. Its structure offers more changing verse text than repeated hook material, while the words have fairly active phrasing. Plan to carry the verses yourself; this is not rated as a dependable full-room singalong.
