Better Get to Livin' Dolly Parton
Intro:
E A x2
Oo hoo
[D]People always comin' up to me and askin'
"Dolly, what's your s[G]ecret?
With [D]all you do, your attitude
Just seems to be so good
How do you k[G]eep it?"
Well, I'm n[A]ot the Dalai Lama, but I'll t[G/C]ry
To of[A]fer up a few words of adv[G/C]ice.
Chorus:
You better get to li[D]vin', g[G]ivin'
[A]Don't forget to throw in a little for[D]givin'
And lo[G]vin' on the w[A]ay
You better get to kn[D]owin', sh[G]owin'
[A]A little bit more concern about where you're g[G/C]oin'
Just a word unt[A]o the wise
You better get to li[D]vin'.
Instr.
A, B,
E, A, B
A [D]girlfriend came to my house
Started cryin' on my shoulder Sunday e[G]vening
She was sp[D]innin' such a sad tale
I could not believe the yarn that she was w[G]eavin'
[A]So negative the words she had to [G/C]say
I said i[A]f I had a violin I'd p[G/C]lay.
I said you'd better get to li[D]vin', gi[G]vin'
Be wil[A]ling and forgivin'
Cause all he[D]aling h[G]as to start with y[A]ou
You better stop wh[D]ining, pi[G]ning
[A]Get your dreams in line
And then just s[D]hine, design, re[G]fine
Until they[A] come true
And you better get to li[D]vin'.
Bridge: (Not sure about this part)
[Fm]Your life's a wreck, your h[Bbsus2]ouse is mess
And your war[C5]drobe way o[Db]utdated
[Fm]All your plans just ke[Bbsus2]ep on falling th[C5]rough
[Fm]Overweight and un[Bbsus2]der paid, un[C5]der apprec[Db]iated
[C5]I'm no guru, but I'll tell you
[A]This I know is true.
You better get to l[D]ivin', g[G]ivin'
A little m[A]ore thought about bein'
A little more will[D]in' to [G]make a better [A]way
Don't sweat the s[D]mall stuff
Keep your c[G]hin up
Just ha[A]ng tough
And if it gets too rough
Fall o[G/C]n your knees and pr[A]ay
And d[G/C]o that ever[A]yday
Then you'll get to li[D]vin'.
The da[D]y we're born we st[G]art to die
Don't wa[A]ste one minute o[G/C]f this life
G[D]et to li[G]vi[A]n'
[D]Share your dreams and sh[G]are your laughter
[A]Make some points for the g[G/C]reat he[D]re[G]aft[A]er.
Better start ca[D]rin'
Better start sh[G]arin'
Better start tr[A]yin'
Better start sm[D]iling
And you [G]better [A]get to li[D]vin'...
Enjoy! :)
