D                       G
When I was a young man, my daddy told me
D                             A
A lesson he learned, it was a long time ago
D                        G
If you want to have someone to hold onto
D                        A
You're going to have to learn to let go


[Chorus]
           D             G
You got to sing like you don't need the money
D                A
Love like you'll never get hurt
           D          G
You got to dance like nobody's watching
            D                          A
It's got to come from the heart if you want it to work


[Verse 2]
D                              G
Now here is the one thing that I keep forgetting
D                  A
When everything is falling apart
D                       G
In life as in love, you know I need to remember
D                       A
There's such a thing as trying too hard


[Chorus]
           D             G
You got to sing like you don't need the money
D                A
Love like you'll never get hurt
           D          G
You got to dance like nobody's watching
            D                          A
It's got to come from the heart if you want it to work
           D                       G
You got to sing sometimes like you don't need the money
           D                          A
You got to love sometimes like you'll never get hurt
           D                        G
You got to dance, dance, dance like nobody's watching
            D                           A
It's got to come from the heart if you want it to work
