I’m new to kalimba so this is pretty basic. It’s in a different key from the original so some notes are approximations.

With Lyrics”

Intro
1’3’4’5′ 4’3′
73’4’5′ 4’3′
1’3’4’5′ 4’3′
73’4’5′ 4’3′

1’2’1’5′
Dancing through life
71’75’3′
Skimming the surface
61’4’6’5’5’3′
Gliding where turf is smooth
4’4’3’2′
Life’s more painless
3’3’2’1′
For the brainless
1’2’1’3′
Why think too hard?
2’3’4’3’2′
When it’s so soothing

1’2’1’5′
Dancing through life
71’75’3′
No need to tough it
61’4’6’5’5’6’7’1″
When you can slough it off as I do
2″1″7’6′
Nothing matters
6’1″7’6’5’3’2’1′
But knowing nothing matters
61’5′
It’s just life
61’5’3’3′
So keep dancing through

1’3’4’5’4’3′
73’4’5′ 5’5′

1’2’1’5′
Dancing through life
71’75’3′
Swaying and sweeping
61’4’6’5’4’5’3′
And always keeping cool
4’4’3’2′
Life is fraught-less
3’3’2’1′
When you’re thoughtless
1’2’1’3′
Those who don’t try
2’3’4’3’2′
Never look foolish

1’2’1’5′
Dancing through life
71’75’3′
Mindless and careless
61’4’6’5’5’6’7’1″
Make sure you’re where less trouble is rife
2″1″7’6′
Woes are fleeting
1″7’5’3’2’1′
Blows are glancing
61’3’5′
When you’re dancing
6’1″ 2″(5’1″)
Through life
