Better Get To Livin'

Capo on 2nd Fret 

D 
People always coming up to me, 
				     G 
And asking “Dolly what’s your secret? 
D 
With all you do your attitude just seems 
				G 
To be so good how do you keep it? 
	Em			        A	 
Well am not the Dalai Lama but ill try, 
       Em		G          A 
To Offer up a few words of advice. 

			D	G 
You’d better get to living, Givin’ 
A					D 
Don’t forget to throw in a little forgiving’ 
         Em                G 
And lovin’ on the way. 
			D           G 
You’d better get knowing, showing 
A						D 
A little bit more concerned about where you’re going 
G		        Em     A 
Just a word unto the wise. 
            D 
You’d better get to livin’. 

Verse 2: 
D 
A girlfriend came to my house, 
Started cryin’ on my shoulder, 
G 
Sunday evening. (Better Get To Living) 
		D 
She’s she was spinnin’ such a sad tale I couldn’t believe 
			G 
The yarn that she was waving’ 
     Em				      A 
So negative the words she had to say, 

  Em  			       G    A 
I said “If I had a violin I’d Play” 

			D	G 
I said you’d better get to living, Give in 
A					D 
Be willing and forgiving’ 
         Em                      G 
Cos our healin' has to start with you 
	          D         G 
You better stop winin', pinin' 
A				D 
Get your dreams in line and just 
G		             Em        A 
Shine, Design, Refine until They Come True. 
              D 
You’d better get to livin’. 

Bridge: 
E                          A         
Your life’s a wreck your house is a mess, 
          D                 E 
And your wardrobe is way outdated, 
              D                        A 
All your plans just keep on falling through, 
E                 A 
Overweight and underpaid, 
D             E 
Underappreciated, 
 D                               A 
I'm no guru but I tell you this I know is true 

Chorus: 

                      D       G 
You’d better get to living, givin’ 
A                                                D 
A little more thought about been a little more willing, 
G                 A 
To make a better way (make a better Way) 
                  D                     G 
Don’t sweat the small stuff, keep your chin up, 
      A 
Just hang tough, and If it get too rough, 
G                       A        D         G   A (stop) 
Fall on your knees and pray, and do that everyday 
                    D 
Then you’ll get to livin’ 

Outro: 
     D                 Em 
The day were born we start to die, 
          G                A 
So don’t waste one minute of this life, 
         D       Em    G    A 
Get to livin! (Get to livin’) 
D                      Em                      G 
Share your dreams and share your Laughter and Make some points. 
                   A 
For the great hereafter. (Get to Livin’) 

               D 
Better start caring, 
               Em 
Better start sharing 
               G 
Better start tryin’, 
               A 
Better start smilin’ 
          D    Em G   A D 
And you better get to livin’.
