Biography:
Mott the Hoople were a British rock band that was formed in 1968 in Herefordshire, England, near the Welsh border. They were led by Ian Hunter until his departure in 1974. The band itself broke up in 1976. The group is best known for the international hit single "All the Young Dudes", written by David Bowie and featured in films such as 'Clueless' and 'Juno'. The band's name came from a novel, authored by Willard Manus, about a freak-show worker named Norman Mott.

[Intro]
C Dm F
[Verse 1]
C F C C F C
Oh if my wheel could take another turn, and if my life replaced itself again
E7 F G C G G7
I wouldn't want a single thing to change, Oh it's been good, though it's been strange
C F C C F C
And if my dreams were willing to come true, Oh I would not even try to let them through
E7 F G C G G7
I'm sure there's things I've missed that others preached, the goals they reached, they weren't for me
[Chorus]
D A E A
Rest in peace, even though the worries seem to mount

Don't let them count, rest in peace
[Verse 2]
C F C C F C
Throw all those smiles and paper miles away, you make willow pattern pictures through the rain
E7 F G C G G7
And swallow when your heart begins to breathe, just like a bird, do what it please
C F C C F C
'Cause I ain't gonna be here all that long, and when I'm old I want to know I sung
E7 F G C G G7
If there's a road ahead, I'll jump right in, just got to win, this is my hymn
[Chorus]

Rest in peace, even though your worries seem to mount

Don't let them count, rest in peace
