A                        Fmaj7
We get high in backseats of cars
A                    Fmaj7
We break into mobile homes
A                       Fmaj7
We go to sleep to shake up you
A                       Fmaj7
And then wake up on our own

Chorus:
Am                        A  
And that's the way we get by to
         Fmaj7
Way we get by
Am                        A  
Aw that's, the way we get by to
         Fmaj7
Way we get by


A                   Fmaj7
We go out in stormy weather
A                   Fmaj7
We rarely practice discern
A                         Fmaj7
We make love to some with sin
A               Fmaj7
We seek out the taciturn

Chorus:
A                     Fmaj7  
And that's the way we get by
A                Fmaj7  
That's the way we get by


A                               Fmaj7
We found a new kinda dance in a magazine
A                                   Fmaj7
Try it on, it's like nothin' you've ever seen
A                                  Fmaj7
You sweet talk like a cop, an' you know it
A
You bought a new bag of pot
Fmaj7
So let's make a new start

Chorus:
Am                        Fmaj7
And that's the way we get by
Am                  Fmaj7
That's the way we get by

Interlude:

F - Am - E7 - E7


A                        Fmaj7
We get high in backseats of cars
A                   Fmaj7
We put faith in our concerns
A                        Fmaj7
Fall in love to down the streak
A                       Fmaj7
We believe in the sum of ourselves


Am                        Am  
And that's the way we get by to
       Fmaj7
Way we get by
Am                        Am  
Aw that's the way we get by to
       Fmaj7
Way we get by
Am                        Am   
And that's the way we get by to
       Fmaj7
Way we get by to

Way


A                      Fmaj7
And that's the way we get by
A                     Fmaj7
That's the way we get by
