How to Live [Album Version] Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
When I'm giving ad[C]vice to [G]others
I take more than I can give
It's a [D]birds eye view
Of what I [C]want you to do or
how to live
[G][Em]

[Verse 2]
[G]
And I really don't [C]have [G]to suffer
I still do it anyway
I'm a [D]diamond in the rough
Or I'm a [C]dirt clod in [D]the clay
[G][Em]

[Verse 3]
[G]
Guess what [F]I lost m[C]y job
[Em]It's just my l[Cm]uck
[G][C]

[Verse 4]
[G]
Reveal you've always [C]been the actor
[G]With those puppy dog eyes
Well [D]one of y'all is telling the truth
[C]The other one is ly[D]ing[G][Em][G]
It's someone else's [C]fault
so [G]often
You're getting rude, or getting tall
It's a [D]great big world
Darling [C]your transla[D]tion's just
a little off
[G][Em]

[Verse 5]
[G]
So what, [F]you made a mistake
[C]You [Em]try to h[Cm]ide the time[G]
The time is [Em]life[Baug]
Gets a little bit lar[G]ger everyday
And it grows
'Til it's [Em]out of control

[Interlude 1]
[Baug][Cm][G]
[Em][G][C][D][C][D][G][C]
[G]

[Verse 6]
I've been giving my ad[C]vice to others
[G]I try to tell them how to live
A little [D]lying, a bit of truth
What I'd [C]like for you to [D]do
and how to give
[G][Em]

[Verse 7]
[G]
And I really didn't [C]need to [G]suffer
Still did it anyway
What a [D]great big world
I better [C]find some [D]way to stay
[G][Em]

[Verse 8]
[G]
Guess what [F]you're getting [Em]old
Still gotta [Baug]grow up[G]

[Outro 1]
[G][D][G]
