The Way that you are  Caroline Herring

INTRO: G
It was too good to be true
How could I think it would be good at [C]all
Still you [G]stand tall
You had a story to tell
You said it had a happy [C]ending
But not one for[G] me
You [D]strung me along
Said there's nobody else
CHORUS:
[C]Why would you want to be the way that you [G]are, my [C]darling?
I [D]marvel at the face
Of this life of disgrace
You [G]have been [Am]for so [G]long
[C]It took the tidal waves
Of five hundred hurricanes
To [G]help me reach the [C]shore
Tell me, [D]why would you want to be the way that you [G]are?[C] [G]
The first time you took my hand
And you wooed me with the language of[C] love
And of[G] life
The second time, still I believed
Your kids just told me that I was no[C] fool
That you were not[G] cruel
Then you [D]broke my heart with ease
Saying, "I'm not a bad man"
CHORUS:
[C]Why would you want to be the way that you [G]are, my [C]darling?
I [D]marvel at the face
Of this life of disgrace
You [G]have been [Am]for so [G]long
[C]It took the tidal waves
Of five hundred hurricanes
To [G]help me reach the [C]shore
Tell me, [D]why would you want to be the way that you [G]are?[C] [G]
BRIDGE:
When the [D]lies and the cheating and the blaming is on
When the [C]work day is ended and the ([G] ? ? ) is gone
Will you [A]lie in your bed and no life remains?
Do you [C]know your deception, do you [D]feel any pain_____?
CHORUS:
C ~ ~ ~ G C
Why would you want to be the way that you are, my darling?
And I [D]marvel at the face
Of this life of disgrace
You [G]have been [Am]for so [G]long
[C]It took the tidal waves
Of five hundred hurricanes
To [G]help me reach the [C]shore
Tell me, [D]why would you want to be the way that you [G]are?[C]
D G C ~ ~ G
Oh, why would you want to be the way that you are?
