Wood Grain Fix

All,
I have slight lifting of my wood trim on the ends... Anyone suggest what type of glue or cement to use to just tack the ends?
Thanks
Mike

I used Clear Gorilla Glue on my door panel that the wood trim was lifting on one of the ends. I had to buy one of those huge wood clamps, cheap at Harbor Freight, in order to keep it clamped while it dried. It has been 6 months since I did it and so far it has not come loose.
