[Verse 1]
C               E7              A
Everybody has a dream that they hold on to
                  Dm   Daug
But what can they do
                G
To make it come true

[Verse 2]
C               E7           A
Everybody has a whole lot of life to live
                      Dm     Daug
But you've got to sit back
                G
Oh, you gotta relax

[Chorus]
              C          Em         Dm7      G
You've got to love every breath you breathe
C           Em        Dm7       G
Look at the sky and believe (oh yeah)
               F                 Fm
Smile a little more as life goes by
     Em           A7
With love in your eyes
               Dm  G          C
Just give it a try, give it a try

[Verse 3]
C                          E7        A
If you're tired of looking over your shoulder, it's time
                      Dm    Daug
To take a look at yourself
                     G
Don't be left on the shelf

[Verse 4]
C                       E7         A
In the end, you will surrender and then you'll be fine
              Dm    Daug
Like everyone else
                      G
You'll be back in yourself

[Chorus]
              C          Em         Dm7      G
You've got to love every breath you breathe
C           Em        Dm7       G
Look at the sky and believe (oh yeah)
               F                 Fm
Smile a little more as life goes by
     Em           A7
With love in your eyes
               Dm  G          F
Just give it a try, give it a try

[Bridge]
F                  G
Everybody makes mistakes sometimes
         C                Am
It's all right (alright), it's all right (alright)
F                         G
But you can have a better life my friend
C           Am
Here in the light
D                          G
One day at a time and your life will shine

[Chorus]
              C          Em         Dm7      G
You've got to love every breath you breathe
C           Em        Dm7       G
Look at the sky and believe (oh yeah)
               F                 Fm
Smile a little more as life goes by
     Em           A7
With love in your eyes
               Dm  G          C    A
Just give it a try, give it a try
                Dm        G                    C
Why kiss it goodbye (bye, bye), just give it a try
