[Intro] Am F C
G C
Remember times back on the train
C Em
Counting roofs and taking names
Em Am
Knew every line to Stand By Me
Am F
A love so blind, we couldn't see
F G4
Loved you more than you loved me
G C
If I had known, then what I know
C Em
Certain places we can't go
Em Am F
But the demons in my mind came to tease me one last time
G4 G
Doesn't matter who you know
F7M Em
I'm 35, and I'm losing my mind 'cause I feel the same
Dm
Oh, I'm caught in a hurricane
G G4 G
Someone showed me some grace
F7M Em
I had a plan, saw it played out up on a big movie screen
E Am
The ending was you and me
F G
That film never played
Am F C
But, ain't that the way?
G C
I memorized every wall
C Em
Missing notes, unanswered calls
Em Am
It's funny how some people change
Am F
Mostly, we just stay the same
F G4
Same old dreams, we've had them all
G C
'Cause inside everyone is young
C Em
They're counting stars and being dumb
Em Am
The time that graced me with its hand
F
Shook it once, and not again
G4 G
I'll love you right until the end
F7M
I'm 45 and I'm keeping in line
Em
Like you always say
Dm
Oh, "The future's a day away"
G G4 G
But mine came wrapped up in lace
F7M Em
Had I known if I'd picked up the phone, it could be erased
E Am F G
Oh, I thank God in a million ways for showing me grace
Am
But, ain't that way?
F Am
Yeah
(That it goes), that it goes
C F
(Like a bird in your hand), like a bird in your hand
Dm
(Ain't that the way?) Ain't that the way?
Am
(You can try), you can try
G
(But you won't understand), but you won't understand
F
Ain't that the way?
Am
(That it goes), oh, oh
C F
(Like a bird on the wind), like a bird on the wind
Dm. Am
(Ain't that the way?) Ain't that the way?
G
Ain't that the way?
F
But ain't that the way? (Ain't that the way?)
Am C
(That it goes) Ain't that the way?
F
(Like a bird in your hand)
Dm
Ain't that the way?
Am
(You can try)
G
That's the way (but you won't understand)
F Am
Ain't that the way? (That it goes)
C F
That's the way (like a bird on the wind)
Dm Am
(Ain't that the way?)
G
Ain't that the way?
F
Ain't that the way?
Am C
Ain't that the way?
