If you're searching out for something - Don't try so hard
Am7
If you're feeling kinda nothing - Don't try so hard
D D7
When your problems seem like mountains
D D7
You feel the need to find some answers
Am7 Em D Em
You can leave them for another day - Don't try so hard
But if you fall and take a tumble - It won't be far
If you fail you mustn't grumble - Thank your lucky stars
Just savour every mouthful
And treasure every moment
When the storms are raging round you
Stay right where you are
D Am7
Oh, Don't try so hard
Bm Am7
Oooh don't take it all to heart
Em Em/D# Em/D Em/C# C Em/B
It's only fools they make these rules - Don't try so hard
One day you'll be a sergeant major Oh you'll be so proud
Screaming out your bloody orders Hey but not too loud
Polish all your shiny buttons
Dressed as lamb instead of mutton
But you never had to try
Em D Em D
To stand out from the crowd
E D
Oh what a beautiful world
A E F#m E
Is this the life for me
D A
Oh what a beautiful world
Am7 Em Bm Cm
It's the simple life for me
Solo: as version
D D7
Oh don't try so hard
Bm Am7
Oh don't take it all to heart
Em Em/D# Em/D Em/C#
It's only fools - they make these rules
Am7
Don't try so hard
Em
Don't try so hard
