[Intro 1]
[D][G]
[D][G]

[Verse 1]
[D](Ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh)
People always comin' up
to me and askin'
"Dolly, what's your [G]secret?
With [D]all you do, your attitude
Just seems to be so good
How do you [G]keep it?"
Well, I'm [Em]not the Dalai Lama, but [A]I'll try
To [Em]offer up a few words of ad[A]vice

[Verse 2]
You better get to [D]livin', [G]givin'
[A]Don't forget to throw in
a [G]little for[D]givin'
And [G]love along [A]the way
You [G]better get to [D]knowin', [G]showin'
A [A]little bit more [Bm]concern about
[A]where you're [G]goin'
Here's a word unto [A]the wise
You better get to [D]livin'
[G]

[Verse 3]
(Ah-ha)
A [D]girlfriend came to my house
Started cryin' on my shoulder Sunday
[G]evening (better get to livin')
She was [D]spinnin' such a sad tale
I could not believe the yarn that she [G]was
weavin' (better get to livin')
So [Em]negative the words she had [A]to say
I said [Em]if I had a violin I[A]'d play

[Verse 4]
I said you'd better get to [D]livin', [G]givin'
Be [A]willing and forgivin'
[G]'Cause [D]all heal[G]in'g has
to start [A]with you
You [G]better stop [D]whinin', [G]pinin'
[A]Get your dreams in line
[Bm]And then[A] just shin[G]e, design, refine
'Til they [A]come true
And you better get to [D]livin'[Em]

[Verse 5]
[F]Your life's a wreck, your hou[Bb]se is mess
And your [C]wardrobe way outdated
[F]All your plans just kee[Bb]p on fallin' thr[C]ough
[F]Overweight and und[Bb]er paid,
un[C]der appreci[Dm]ated
[Bb]I'm no guru, but I'll tell you
[A]This I know is true

[Verse 6]
You better get to [D]livin', [G]givin'
A [D]little more thought about bein'
A little more willin' to [G]make a better
[A]way (make a better way)
Don't sweat [D]the small stuff
Keep your [G]chin up
Just [A]hang tough
And if it [Bm]gets too [A]rough
Fall [G]on your knees and [A]pray
(ooh, everyday)
And [Em]do that ev[G]eryd[A]ay
Then you'll get to [D]livin'
[G]

[Verse 7]
(Ah-ha)
The [D]day we're born we start to die
Don't waste one minute of this life
[G]Get to livin' (better get to livin')
[D]Share your dreams and
share your laughter
Make some points for the great
[G]hereafter (better get to livin')

[Verse 8]
Better start [D]carin'
Better start sharin'
Better start tryin'
Better start smiling
And you [G]better get [A]to livin'
