How to Live

VERSE 1

You taught me how to stand up for myself

When the devil came running, told me to give ‘em hell

Those were the days my shadow used to scare me

Now I know closing my eyes won’t make it easy

CHORUS

‘Cause I still see you sitting by me on the day I learned to drive

Saying slow down at the corner hun you’re doing just fine

And out of all the things you taught me

There’s one thing you forgot to do

Tell me how to live without you

VERSE 2

You always were a shoulder I could cry on

When my world fell down, you showed me how to move along

That was back when words seemed to help me

Now when my friends try to sympathize it don’t make things easy

CHORUS

Because you bought me scratch off tickets on the day I turned 18

Saying baby while you grow up, don’t forget to have some dreams

And out of all the things you taught me

There’s one thing you forgot to do

Tell me how to live without you

BRIDGE

You taught me life ain’t easy

It comes and goes so fast

While I’m thankful for the lessons

This one I never thought to ask

CHORUS

‘Cause I still see you sitting by me on the day I learned to drive

Saying slow down at the corner hun you’re doing just fine

Because you bought me scratch off tickets on the day I turned 18

Saying baby while you grow up, don’t forget to have some dreams

And out of all the things you taught me

There’s one thing you forgot to do

Tell me how to live without you

Tell me how to live, how to live

Tell me how to live

Tell me how to live without you

Tell me how to live

How to live without you
