Key: G
Introduction: G D A
G D
Everybody wants an easy ride on the
A
merry go round that we call life
G D
Take a drive on cruise control then you
A
wake to find it's a winding road
G D
I had my dreams in view when the
A
money ran out and the engine blew
G D
Hung my tears out to dry then my
A
dreams fell out of that clear blue sky
Dm Bb C
And I, I was walking the clouds
Am7 Dm
Feeling so safe and sound
Bb A
Something else knocks me down
D A G
Oh that's the way it is
D A D
You gotta roll with the punches
A G
That's the way it goes
D A
You gotta bend when the wind blows
Bb F Gm7
You live you learn, you crash and burn
Gm
It's hit or miss
C F A
And that's the way it is
G D
One fine day you wake up
A
completely hopelessly fallin in love
G D
He's just what you're looking for the only
A
problem is that the man's not sure
G D
Another guy'll give you everything, only
A
problem is you don't feel a thing
G D
Well I know from experience nothing's
A
ever gonna make perfect sense
Dm Bb C
Oh, one day you get what you want
Am7 Dm
But it's not what you think
Bb A
Then you get what you need
CHORUS
A Bb
Yeah, they say your soul is growing
A Bb A
But sometimes I feel like throwing something
CHORUS (repeats several times)
