VERSE:
G D Cadd9 C
Grandpa campbell would sit upon his front porch
G D Cadd9 C
And I'd be right there just sittin on his knee
G D Cadd9 C
He'd tell stories about love and feast and famine
G D Cadd9 C
And I'd hang onto every word that he would breathe
A Cadd9
He'd say boy as you walk through this life
A Cadd9 D
Here's a little wisdom that'll help you get by
CHORUS:
G D
You gotta live to learn
Cadd9 C
You gotta crash and burn
G D
You gotta make some stances
Cadd9 C
And take some chances
G D
You gotta live and love
Cadd9 A
And take all life has to give
Cadd9 G D
You gotta live and learn
G
So you can learn to live
VERSE:
Well i left home and i went to carolina
I didn't sail off just to see what i could see
I did some things that i wasn't really proud of
Sometimes life just got the best of me
But i'd always think back to those days
And i know what grandmpa campbell would say
He'd say
REPEAT CHORUS
VERSE:
After years of running round and searching
I found me a woman who loves me just for me
All those mistakes i thought that i was making
Led me right here to you sittin' on my knee
Son as you walk through this life
Here's a little wisdom that will help you get by
REPEAT CHORUS
