Verse: walk up from G to C, C7, A, A7, F, G walk down
Chorus: F, G, C, A, A7, F, G, C, F, C

Baby don’t touch that stove it’s hot
She does it even when you tell her not
After that the lesson’s taking hold
Most people don’t learn from being told

‘cause the best kind of mistakes
Are the ones you make
The best kind of mistakes are when you’re on your own

If we always did what they said was best
We’d never really put it to the test
Lots of challenges were overcome
After they said that it couldn’t be done
So put your nose back to that stone
Make them eat the words ‘I told you so’

‘cause the best kind of mistakes
Are the ones you make
The best kind of mistakes are when you’re on your own

Get up come on get out that door
Find yourself something worth fighting for
Far as I see you get one life
I’d hate to waste away afraid to try

‘cause the best kind of mistakes
Are the ones you make
The best kind of mistakes are when you’re on your own
I said the best kind of mistakes
Are the ones you make love
The best kind of mistakes are when you’re on your own
