Band: Little Feat
Song: Don't Try So Hard
Album: Shake Me Up
[A]Heart don't try so hard this time
[A/C#]Let her [D]go; You know it's [A]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 [D]thing that we can [D/E]learn to live with[A]out
[G9] We were caught up in that fiery [D/F#]passion of the moment
[G/A] [A] Hoping that [G/A]love was here to [A]stay
[G9] 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
[A] I let her changing heart and her dissatisfaction
[A/C#]Manifest it[D]self in my con[A]fusion.
I was trying to make some sense of that volatile attraction when her
[A/C#]haughty dispo[D]sition made me [D/E]lose my [A]way.
[G9]I must admit I spent a [D/F#]fine short moment
[G/A]fighting to take con[A]trol, not [G/A]willing to take that [A]chance.
[G9] I thought I couldn't let go. [D/F#] Sentimental fool, you know
[D/E]A casualty of [D]big ro[E]mance.
[A/C#] H[D]eart, don't try so h[F#m]ard this t[G]ime.
There's a[D]nother lover [A/C#]waiting [D]'round a[D/E]nother parad[A]igm.
These [A/C#]tears we cry are [D]just a waste of [F#m]water, don't you [G]know
We got to [D]learn to see when [A/C#]something's[D] finally go[D/E]ne
and just let it [A]go.
[G9] Seem like every time you find the [D/F#]real thing
[G/A] First thing you [A]know, [G/A] picking yourself up [A]off the floor
[G9] Seem like you just get started [D/F#] then you're first-degree downhearted
[D/E] Next thing you hear is the [D]slamming of the [E]door
[A/C#] [D]Heart, don't try so [F#m]hard this [G]time.
There's a[D]nother lover w[A/C#]aiting '[D]round a[D/E]nother parad[A]igm.
These [A/C#]tears we cry are [D]just a waste of [F#m]water, don't you [G]know
We got to [D]learn to see when [A/C#]something's [D]finally
[A]Say good-bye and keep on walking
[A/C#] [D] Don't try so [F#m]hard this [G]time.
There's a[D]nother lover [A/C#]waiting 'r[D]ound a[D/E]nother parad[A]igm.
