Way It Goes

F# Ebm              B           
I know we're gonna make it but 
              F#
we'll take it slow,
You never know what you're gonna 
Ebm
get,
                          B        
You say you're live your life like 
             F#
Russian roulette
       F#
And I know, I know.
  Ebm            B                
I know you cant live your life on 
    F#
the run.
                           Ebm
My daddy told me listen my son,
           B                    
Do what I say don't do what I've 
  F#
done.


VERSE:
F#
I'm not the best at most the things 
I try and do.
F#
I make a mess out of most things 
well yes its true.
   Ebm                          
But I still climb to the top, before
Ebm
 I get to ride it down.
   Ebm                             
And I don't raise a deal about the 
 Ebm
things that I have done and found.
      F#
Cause I'm, well, just a man, but a 
man got a lot to lose.

Got a lot of choice to make with not
 a whole lot of choice to choose.
Ebm
 Do I accept my fate or do I go and 
refuse,

I got to force to state and I got to
 state the trues.
Abm
And that's the problem, there ain't 
no right or wrong,
 B
One's about getting ahead and one's 
about getting gone.

CHORUS:
    F#   Ebm               B     
And I, I know we're gonna make it
                    F#
 but we'll take it slow,
You never know what you're gonna 
Ebm
get,
                          B        
You say you're live your life like 
            F#
Russian roulette

And I know, I know.
       Ebm            B           
Well I know you cant live your 
         F#
life on the run.
                           Ebm
My daddy told me listen my son,
           B                    
Do what I say don't do what I've 
  F#
done.


VERSE:
F#
But I ain't calling for no outs or 
immunities.
F#
I got my problems, but I'm solving 
them when I'm in the sea.
            Ebm
Cause "the finer things are 
nothing", said my future wife.
      Ab
So I told her, "everything else must
 cost me more than my life."
       F#
But I know, that's just the way it 
goes.
                       Ebm         
And I know, the way it goes is the 
Db      F#
way it goes.
       Ebm                     
And I know, if I don't make it, 
         Ebm
there'll be a good reason
       Ebm                       
But if I'm stuck by next year I'm 
      Ebm
just getting up and I'm leaving
     Abm
Cause,  that's the problem, there 
ain't no right or wrong.
         B
I said, one's about getting ahead 
the other's about getting gone.
F#       Ebm           B
 It's a choice if you stop,
        F#       Ebm        B
But it ain't one if there's no use.
       F#          Ebm        B
Gotta climb to the very very top,
    F#              Ebm       
But If you want the best of the 
   B
views,
         Bm
And its true.
                   F#
And I know, and I know


CHORUS:
   Ebm               B        
I  know we're gonna make it but 
                 F#
we'll take it slow,
You never know what you're gonna 
Ebm
get,
                          B        
You say you're live your life like 
            F#

And I know, I know.
       Ebm            B           
Well I know you cant live your

life on the run.

My daddy told me listen my son,
           B                    
Do what I say don't do what I've 
  F#
done.
