THE WAY IT WILL BE
INTRO: Em Am
[Em] I lost you a while ago,[Am] But still I don't know [Em]why
[Em] I can't say your name, [Am] Without a crow flying [Em]by
[C] Got to watch my back,[Bm] Now that you've turned me a-[E]round
[Am] Got me walking backwards, In my home-t[Em]own
Th[G]row me a r[C]ope, On the rol[G]ling ti[C]de
[Am] What did you [C/B]want me to [C]be, [Am] He said it's [C/B]him or [C]me
The [Am]way you made it, [C] That's the way it will [G]be[D] [C]
It was s[Em]even years on the burnin' shore[Am], With gatling guns and p[Em]aint
Wo[Em]rking the lowlands door-to-door, [Am] Like a latter day s[Em]aint
[C] Then you turn me [Bm]out, At the top of the st[E]airs
[Am] You took all the glory, That you just couldn't s[Em]hare
I[Em]'ve never been so disabused,[Am] I've never been so [Em]mad
I[Em]'ve never been served anything, [Am] That tasted so [Em]bad
[C] You might need a fr[Bm]iend, Any day now any d[E]ay
[Am] Oh my brother be careful, You are driftin' a[Em]way
Th[G]row me a r[C]ope, On the ro[G]lling t[C]ide
[Am] What did you [C/B]want me to [C]be, [Am] He said it's [C/B]him or [C]me
The w[Am]ay you made it,[C] That's the way it will [G]be[D] [C]
The w[Am]ay you made it,[C] That's the way it will [G]be
