[Verse 1]
Everybody has a dream that they hold on to
But what can they do to make it come true?
Everybody has a whole lot of life to live
But you've got to sit back
Oh, you gotta relax

[Chorus]
You've got to love every breath you breathe
Look at the sky and believe (oh yeah)
Smile a little more as life goes by
With love in your eyes
Just give it a try
Give it a try

[Verse 2]
If you're tired of looking over your shoulder
It's time to take a look at yourself
Don't be left on the shelf
In the end you will surrender and then you'll be fine
Like everyone else
You'll be back in yourself

[Chorus]
You've got to love every breath you breathe
Look at the sky and believe (oh yeah)
Smile a little more as life goes by
With love in your eyes
Just give it a try
Give it a try

[Verse 3]
Everybody makes mistakes sometimes
It's all right, it's all right
But you can have a better life my friend, here in the back
One day at a time and your life will shine

[Chorus]
You've got to love every breath you breathe
Look at the sky and believe (oh yeah)
Smile a little more as life goes by
With love in your eyes
Just give it a try
Give it a try
Why kiss it goodbye?
Just give it a try

Ringo Starr

Best known as the drummer for The Beatles, Ringo Starr (born Richard Starkey, 1940) also had a moderately successful solo career (with hits like “It Don’t Come Easy” and “Photograph”) and was the narrator for Thomas The Tank Engine.

His country-infused nickname emerged from a tendency to wear rings on his fingers.
