[Intro] D A D A E F#m A [Verse 1]
   A                               D
We try so hard to make it all work out

E                                          A
Sometimes sittin' on the top of the world, sometimes very deep in doubt

                                                  D
And if the only thing that tomorrow brings is the sunrise on the top of that hill

          E
I'm gonna sit right down and watch the world go 'round

          A
And never think about another damned bill
[Verse 2]
A                                    D
Some men live for money and some for art

E                              A
One guy thinks he's funny, the other guy thinks he's smart

A                                         D
Everybody's gonna get lucky every now and then

        E                                    A
And the one who's feelin' so low down now is later on gonna win
[Chorus]
        A                                  D
Let the picture paint itself and it'll be alright

E                                        A
You don't have to try so hard, you don't have to hold on so tight

                                                D
Let the picture paint itself and it'll only get better

             E
And when the day is thru and it's just me and you

              A
Well we'll be feelin' so good we'll be knockin' on wood
[Break] D A D A E F#m A [Verse 3]
A                                          D
If you think you've got troubles just look around

    E                                  A
And don't go out in public all turned upside down

                                            D
If the only thing that you're livin' for is pain

               E
Yeah there's a real good chance that you'll get nothin' more

       A
Than a lot more of the same
[Chorus]
        A                                  D
Let the picture paint itself and it'll be alright

E                                        A
You don't have to try so hard, you don't have to hold on so tight

                                                D
Let the picture paint itself and it'll only get better

             E
And when the day is thru and it's just me and you

              A
Well we'll be feelin' so good we'll be knockin' on wood
[Outro] D A D A E F#m A
