Dolly Parton - Better Get To Livin' (Official Music Video) chords
Start Jamming...
[F#] Gather round me, [N] separate!
[D] Dolly!
Behind the curtain!
The mirror [F#] of love in your man!
Got something on your mind?
What's wrong?
You're washing [Gm] dryer on the blitzfather in your [N] man!
Why the tears?
The weeping woman!
Of jealousy!
Eyes from the inside!
[F#] Green with envy!
She has all she needs, but she is never [D#m] satisfied!
Ring a bell?
You know Dolly, I wish I could be as positive as you.
Oh, [F#m] it's simple.
Don't think I don't see [G#] what you see and feel what you feel.
But I [C] got a little [F#] voice down inside me, keeps me right on track.
Yeah, well you got all the luck.
I wish I had half of what you [N] get!
The mirror of love!
You better get to living, ladies!
Next show [E] in ten minutes!
[A]
[E]
[A] People
[E] always coming up to me and asking,
Dolly, [A] what's your secret?
[E] With all you do, your attitude just seems to be so good after [A] you keep it.
[F#m] Well, I'm not the Dolly Lama, [B] but I'll try
[F#m] To offer up a few [B] words of advice.
[E] You better get to living, [A] giving,
[B]
Don't forget to [A] throw in [E] a little forgiving
[A] And love [B] along the way.
[A] [E] You better get to knowing, [A] showing,
[B]
A little bit [E] more concerned about [A] where you're going.
There's a word [B] unto the wise,
[G] [E] You better get to living.
[A] A
[E] girlfriend came to my house, started crying on my shoulder [A] Sunday [E] evening.
She was spinning such a sad tale, I could not believe the yarn that she [A] was [E] weaving.
You better get to living.
[F#m] So negative, the words she [B] had to say,
[F#m] Said, if I had a violin, [B]
I'd play.
[D] I said, you [E] better get to living, [A] giving,
[B] Be willing and [A] forgiving,
[E] Cause all healing [A] has to [B] start with you.
[A] You [E] better stop whining, [A] pining,
[B]
Get your [C#m] dreams in [B] line,
And [A] then just shine, design, refine,
[B] Until they come true.
And you [E] better get to living.
[D] [G]
Your life's [C] a wreck, your house is a [D] mess,
And your wardrobe's way outdated.
[G]
All your [C] plans just keep on [D] falling through.
[G]
[C] Overweight and [D] underpaid, [Em] underappreciated.
[C]
I'm no guru, but I'll [B] tell you this, I know it's true.
You [E] better get to living, giving,
A little more thought about being,
And a little more willingness to make a better way.
Don't sweat the small stuff, [A] keep your chin up,
[B] Just hang tough, [C#m] and if it [B] gets too [A] rough,
Follow your needs [B] and pray.
[F#m] And [A] you've got [B] every day,
[E] Then you'll get to living.
[A]
[E] The day we're born, we start to die,
Don't waste one minute of this [A] life,
Get to living.
[E]
Share your dreams and share your laughter,
Make some points for the parade [A]
hereafter.
[E] You better stop caring, better stop sharing,
Better stop trying, better stop smiling,
[A] And you better [B] get to [E] living.
