Verse: 
G        D              Em                C   
Grandpa Campbell would sit upon his front porch 
G          D                 Em             C 
And I'd be right there just sittin' on his knees 
G          D          Em                  C 
He'd tell stories of love and feast and famine 
G            D          Em                  C 
And I'd hang onto every word that he would breathe 


Pre-Chorus 
A                     C 
He'd say, 'Boy as you walk through this life 
A                              C           D 
Here's a little wisdom that'll help you get by 

 
         G          D               Em        C 
You gotta live and learn, you gotta crash and burn 
         G           D           Em         C 
You gotta take some stances and take some chances 
         G          D             Em      C        A 
You gotta laugh and love and take all life has to give 
          C         G   D                          
You gotta live and learn so you can learn to live

Verse: 
G             D          Em          C 
Though I left home and I went to Carolina 
G           D          Em                C  
I then set off just to see what I could see 
G           D             Em                 C 
I did some things that I wasn't really proud of 
G             D         Em              C 
And sometimes life just got the best of me 


Pre-Chorus 
A                    C 
But I'd always think back to those days 
A                        C              D 
And I know what Grandpa Campbell would say he'd say 

 
         G          D               Em        C 
You gotta live and learn, you gotta crash and burn 
         G           D           Em         C 
You gotta take some stances and take some chances 
         G          D             Em      C        A 
You gotta laugh and love and take all life has to give 
          C         G   D                          
You gotta live and learn so you can learn to live

Verse: 
G      D         Em                 C 
After years of runnin' 'round and searchin' 
G            D          Em               C 
I found me a woman who loves me just for me 
G         D          Em                 C 
All those mistakes I thought that I was making 
G       D               Em                  C 
Led me right here till you're sittin' on my knees 


Pre-Chorus 
A           C 
Son as you walk through this life 
A                      C                    D 
Here's a little wisdom that'll help you get by 


         G          D               Em        C 
You gotta live and learn, you gotta crash and burn 
         G           D           Am  Em Am  D 
You gotta take some stances and take some chances 
         G          D             Em      C        A 
You gotta laugh and love and take all life has to give 
          C         G   D            Am       C   D            
You gotta live and learn , you gotta live and learn 
So you can learn to live, learn to live
