Band: Little Feat
Song: Don’t Try So Hard
Album: Shake Me UpHeart don’t try so hard this time
[A/C#]Let her go; You know it’s done without a doubt.
Don’t fall back into that same “I’m all alone” and sit and pine
She’s [A/C#]just another thing that we can [D/E]learn to live without
We were caught up in that fiery [D/F#]passion of the moment
[G/A] Hoping that [G/A]love was here to stay
It looked like true romance, [D/F#]well worth taking a chance
[D/E]Ah, but then the love just slowly slipped away.
repeat intro
I let her changing heart and her dissatisfaction
[A/C#]Manifest itself in my confusion.
I was trying to make some sense of that volatile attraction when her
[A/C#]haughty disposition made me [D/E]lose my way.
I must admit I spent a [D/F#]fine short moment
[G/A]fighting to take control, not [G/A]willing to take that chance.
I thought I couldn’t let go. [D/F#] Sentimental fool, you know
[D/E]A casualty of big romance.
[A/C#] Heart, don’t try so hard this time.
There’s another lover [A/C#]waiting ’round a[D/E]nother paradigm.
These [A/C#]tears we cry are just a waste of water, don’t you know
We got to learn to see when [A/C#]something’s finally go[D/E]ne
and just let it go.
Seem like every time you find the [D/F#]real thing
[G/A] First thing you know, [G/A] picking yourself up off the floor
Seem like you just get started [D/F#] then you’re first-degree downhearted
[D/E] Next thing you hear is the slamming of the door
[A/C#] Heart, don’t try so hard this time.
There’s another lover w[A/C#]aiting ‘round a[D/E]nother paradigm.
These [A/C#]tears we cry are just a waste of water, don’t you know
We got to learn to see when [A/C#]something’s finally
Say good-bye and keep on walking
[A/C#] Don’t try so hard this time.
There’s another lover [A/C#]waiting ‘round a[D/E]nother paradigm.
These [A/C#]tears we cry are just a waste of water, don’t you know
We got to learn to [A/C#]see when something’s finally [D/E]gone
and just let it go.
