Lyrics & chords

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

[Verse 1]
If [D]you don't get in the water
you're never gonna learn [G]to swim
He said [D]a snake is just as scared
of you as you are of [G]him
He could [Bm]tell by the moon
when the fish [A]would bite
Seems there was [D]nothing
that he didn't [G]know
And as a kid I believed 'cause
[A]Grandpa told me so

[Interlude 1]
[D][G]

[Verse 2]
[D]He talked Daddy into letting
me have my first [G]car
I thought [D]I was really something 'til
Becky Thompson broke my [G]heart
That [Bm]first taste of love
really [A]did me in
Getting [D]over her [G]slow
And I knew someday I would 'cause
[A]Grandpa told me so
[D]

[Verse 3]
He said [G]life is made
for you [D]to live
The best [A]love is the love
that you [D]give
There'll be [G]times when you want to
hold [A]on but you gotta [Bm]let go
And I [G]live by those words 'cause
[A]Grandpa told me so

[Interlude 2]
[D][G]
[D][G]

[Verse 4]
[D]I promised him I wouldn't cry
when it was his time [G]to leave
[D]That's the only promise I
made him I couldn't [G]keep
He [Bm]smiled from his bed and said
[A]we'll meet again
[D]Somewhere down [G]the road
And I believe 'cause [A]Grandpa
told me so
[D]

[Verse 5]
He said [G]life is made for you [D]to live
The best [A]love is the love that you [D]give
There'll be [G]times when you want to
hold [A]on but you gotta [Bm]let go
And I [G]live by those words 'cause
[A]Grandpa told me so
[D]

[Verse 6]
He said [G]life is made for you [D]to live
The best [A]love is the love that you [D]give
There'll be [G]times when you want to
hold [A]on but you gotta [Bm]let go
And [D]I l[G]ive by those words 'cause
[A]Grandpa told me so
[D]

[Verse 7]
Yeah and I [G]still believe
[A]Grandpa told [D]me so[G]
Grandpa told [D]me so
I still believe
[G][D]
