"TRY A LITTLE LAUGHTER" (with chords)

Intro: (D)

Verse 1
When I(D)got out of bed this morning, I(G)went to put my slippers(E)on,
But they were(A)all chewed up ’cause my brand new pup had been playing with them all night(D)long.

Verse 2
So I(D)put on my clothes and got ready to eat(G)breakfast and go off to(E)school, then I re(A)membered,
“Hey, I’ve got the wrong day! it’s a holiday and there isn’t any(D)school!” (No school, school today.)

Chorus 1
I had to(G)laugh at the way I started my day,(D)things weren’t really going my way,
But(E)I’ve heard a rumor that a good sense of humor(A)can help chase those troubles away.
So I(D)tried a little laughter, felt better after, and(G)now I see (now I see)
That(E)laughter is a remedy that is good for you and(A)me. (You, you and me.)

Verse 3
Then I went(D)looking for something to do, so I(G)put on my new roller(E)blades,
But then I(A)slipped and fell, and I let out a yell, then I checked and found that I was o(D)kay. (Okay! I was okay!)

Verse 4
So I de(D)cided to help my father, who was a(G)bout to wash the Chevro(E)let.
I turned the(A)water on, but I was aiming it wrong, and I squirted myself in the(D)face!

Chorus 2
I had to(G)laugh at the way I started my day, (my day) (D)things weren’t really going my way,
But(E)I’ve heard a rumor that a good sense of humor(A)can help chase your troubles away.
So I(D)tried a little laughter, and felt better after, and(G)now I see
That(E)laughter is a remedy that is good for you and(A)me. (You,(B)you and me.)

Verse 5
So if you(E)ever have a bad day when(A)things aren’t going so(F#)well,
This may be(B)hard to do, but my advice to you is to try a little laughter on your(E)self.

Chorus 3
Have a(A)laugh at the way you started your day,(E)if things aren’t really going your way.
(F#)I’ve heard a rumor that a good sense of humor(B)can help chase your troubles away.
Come on and(E)try a little laughter, feel better after, and(A)you will see (you will see)
That(F#)laughter is a remedy that is good for you and(B)me. (You, you and me.)

So come and(E)try and little laughter, and feel better after, and(A)you will see (you will see)
That(F#)laughter is a remedy that is good for you and(B)me. (You, you and me.) (E)Try a little laughter!
