G5             C5  G5    G5            C5               F5               G5 
Try to see it my way. Do I have to keep on talking 'til I can't go on 
G5                C5    G5 
While you see it your way 
G5               C5                F5                 G5 
Run the risk of knowing that our love may soon be gone 
C5              G5    C5              D5 
We can work it out, we can work it out 
 

G5                    C5  G5 
Think of what you're saying 
G5                C5                   F5                   G5 
You can get it wrong and still you think that it's all right 
G5                 C5  G5 
Think of what I'm saying 
G5              C5                F5                 G5 
We can work it out and get it straight or say goodnight 
C5              G5    C5              D5 
We can work it out, we can work it out 
 
(Chorus:) 
E5                                A5   B5 
Life is very short and there's no time 
B5               E5          D5  C5  D5 
For fussing and fighting my friend 
E5                                A5    B5 
I have always thought that it's a crime 
B5         E5      D5     C5    D5 
So I will ask you once again 
 

G5             C5  G5 
Try to see it my way 
G5              C5            F5             G5 
Only time will tell if I am right or I am wrong 
G5                C5    G5 
While you see it your way 
G5                     C5              F5               G5 
There's a chance that we might fall apart before too long 
C5              G5    C5              D5 
We can work it out, we can work it out 
 
(Chorus) 
 

G5             C5  G5    G5            C5               F5               G5 
Try to see it my way. Do I have to keep on talking 'til I can't go on 
G5                C5    G5 
While you see it your way 
G5               C5                F5                 G5 
Run the risk of knowing that our love may soon be gone 
C5              G5    C5              G5 
We can work it out, we can work it out
