[Verse 1]
If you're seEmarching out for something - Don't try so hard
If you're fAm7eeling kinda nothing - Don't try so hard
When your prDoblems seem like mountD7ains
You feel the neDed to find some ansD7wers
You can leAm7ave them for another day - Don't tEmry so hardD  Em  
[Verse 2]
But if you Emfall and take a tumble - It won't be far
If you faAm7il you mustn't grumble - Thank your lucky stars
Just Dsavour every mouthD7ful
And Dtreasure every D7moment
When the Am7storms are raging round you
Stay Emright where you are
[Chorus]
DOh, don't Am7try so hard
BmOooh, don't taAm7ke it all to heart
It's oEmnly fEm/D#ools they mEm/Dake these ruEm/C#les - Don't Ctry so hardEm/B  
[Verse 3]
One day you'll Embe a sergeant major, oh you'll be so proud
Screaming Am7out your bloody orders, hey, but not too loud
Polish Dall your shiny butD7tons
Dressed as Dlamb instead of mutD7ton
But you Am7never had to try
To stand out Emfrom the crowdD  Em  D
