What up, [Em]yo?
[D]Alrighty.[Em][D][Em]
[D][A][Em]
[D][Em][D][Em][D][Em]
[G]
[Em]Well, I don't wanna work[D] that hard
try[Em]in' to be s[D]omething[Em][D][Em]
[G]Say[Em], I don't wanna wor[D]k that hard
[Em]No, I don't wann[D]a work
that [Em]hard
I don't wan[D]na work that hard
try[Em]in' to be something
[G]I don't wanna t[Em]ry,
cause I just wanna [D]do it
And I don't want [Em]to do it,
cause I'm only passing [D]through
Don't want to [Em]pretend, I want to [D]be true
So why you trouble me,
when [A]I never trouble [G]you?
No, no, no, [Em]no
I don't want [D]to work that hard
[Em]I don't want to [D]work that hard
[Em]I don't want to [D]work that hard
Try[Em]ing to be s[G]omething
[Em]I don't want to wo[D]rk that hard
[Em]I don't want to wo[D]rk that hard
[Em]But I don't want t[D]o work that hard,
[Em]try ing to be something
I [G]don't want a [Em]plot,
and I don't want [D]a scheme
And I don't want to plan,
cause [Em]I only want [D]to dream
I don't want [Em]to calculate
my every [D]movement
[A]It's holding tight to [G]il [Em]lusion[D][Em][D][Em]
[D][A][Em][G][Em][D][Em][D]
[Em][D][Em][G]
[Em]I don't wanna work[D] that hard
try[Em]in' to be s[D]omethin'
[Em]Ain't got [D]time to stand around
[A]not doin' noth[G]in'
[Em]I don't wanna wo[D]rk that hard
try[Em]in' to be m[D]e
[Em]But still I got [D]the struggle every day,
[A]just trying to be [G]free
I don't want [Em]to hear you say [D]no,
[Em]I wa[D]nt it to fee[Em]l like letting go
[D]I just want to c[Em]lear my mind and f[D]low,
and if it's sin[A]cere,
then the people will [G]know
I don't want [Em]to fear anywhere I go,
and as [D]I want t[Em]o breathe,
that's how I got the [D]soul
So I drink from the [Em]roots,
and that's how [D]I flow
[Em]With my [D]head up in the [A]heavens
and my feet in the dust
[G]Caught up on the firm [Em]foundation
of the earth below
[D]I w[Em]ear t[A]he wind [D]sunshi[Em]ne,
wear the wind snow
I [A]open [D]up my [Em]heart and I bear high [D]support
And no Babylon [Am]could [Em]con t[G]rol[Em]
I don't wanna [D]work that [A]hard[D][Em]
I don't wan[D]na work that [Em]hard
I don't wanna [D]work that [A]hard
Trying [Em]to be s[G]omething[Em]
I don't want [D]to work that hard,
[Em]I don't wa[D]nt to work that ha[Em]rd,
I don't want [D]to work that hard
