Key of C

      C(e)    
Look for the bare necessities
    F(d)
The simple bare necessities
    C                                 D7  G7
Forget about your worries and your strife
          C        C7
I mean the bare necessities
      F              Fdim
Old Mother Nature's recipes
      C               D7  G7         C
That brings the bare necessities of life

            G7                 C
Wherever I wander, wherever I roam
               G7               C  C7
I couldn't be fonder of my big home
     C7        F          Fdim
The bees are buzzin' in the tree
              C             Fdim
To make some honey just for me

   When you look under the rocks and plants
   And take a glance at the fancy ants
   Then maybe try a few

         Dm             G7                C
The bare necessities of life will come to you
They'll come to you!
Look for the bare necessities
The simple bare necessities
Forget about your worries and your strife
I mean the bare necessities
That's why a bear can rest at ease
With just the bare necessities of life

   Now when you pick a pawpaw
   Or a prickly pear
   And you prick a raw paw
   Next time beware
   Don't pick the prickly pear by the paw
   When you pick a pear
   Try to use the claw
   But you don't need to use the claw
   When you pick a pear of the big pawpaw
   Have I given you a clue ?

The bare necessities of life will come to you
They'll come to you!

   So just try and relax, yeah cool it
   Fall apart in my backyard
   'Cause let me tell you something little britches
   If you act like that bee acts, uh uh
   You're working too hard

   And don't spend your time lookin' around
   For something you want that can't be found
   When you find out you can live without it
   And go along not thinkin' about it
   I'll tell you something true

The bare necessities of life will come to you
