Dont Try So Hard

            Em
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               
When your problems seem like 
      D7
mountains
               D              
You feel the need to find some 
    D7
answers
          Am7                      
You can leave them for another day 
         Em          D  Em
- Don't try so hard

[Verse 2]
           Em
But if you fall and take a tumble - 
It won't be far
         Am7
If you fail you mustn't grumble - 
Thank your lucky stars
     D                 D7
Just savour every mouthful
    D              D7
And treasure every moment
         Am7
When the storms are raging round you
     Em
Stay right where you are

[Verse 3]
               Em
One day you'll be a sergeant major 
Oh you'll be so proud
          Am7
Screaming out your bloody orders Hey
 but not too loud
       D                 D7
Polish all your shiny buttons
           D                  D7
Dressed as lamb instead of mutton
        Am7
But you never had to try
             Em             D Em D
To stand out from the crowd
