G G7 C C7
Look for the bare necessities, the simple bare necessities
G E7 A7 D7
Forget about your worry and your strife
G G7 C C7
I mean the bare necessities or Mother Nature's recipes
G E7 A7 D7 G
That bring the bare necessities of life
BRIDGE:
D7 G D7 G G7
Wherever I wander, wherever I roam, I couldn't be fonder of my big home
C Cm G A7
The bees are buzzin' in the tree to make some honey just for me
A7
You look under the rocks and plants
D7 G E7
And take a glance at the fancy ants, and maybe try a few
A7 D7 G D7 G
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 worry and your strife
I mean the bare necessities, that's why a bear can rest at ease
With just the bear necessities of life
BRIDGE2:
When you pick a paw-paw or prickly pear and you prick a raw paw, next time beware
Don't pick the prickly pear by paw, when you pick the pear try to use the claw
But you don't need to use the claw
When you pick a pear of the big paw-paw, have I given you a clue?
The bare necessities of life will come to you, they'll come to you
BRIDGE3:
So try to relax in my backyard if you act like that bee acts, you're workin' too hard
Don't spend your time just 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, they'll come to you
repeat verse 2
