The Way It Is

       A
Didn't I raise my voice
E               D
High enough for you
      A                          
I was running like a fugitive all 
     E
the time
D              A             
  Risking rejection from my own 
    E
people yeah
D              A
  Now that you got what you wanted
           E           D    A
You don't even know my name
                  E            D
It's so funny, we don't talk anymore

[Pre-chorus]
   A
Be good to the people on your way up
 the ladder
             E                     
Cause you'll need them on your way 
D
down

[Chorus]
           A          E        D
That's the way it is (way it is)
           A          E        D
That's the way it is (way it is)
           A          E        D
That's the way it is (way it is)

       A                 E        
Didn't I raise my fists high 
      D
enough for you
  A
I guess I can't pat myself on the 
shoulder
      E        D
For a job well done
     A
Dodging bullets in the streets
      E     D
I was there
          A               E       
Risking rejection from my own 
   D
people
