Chorus:
            Bm              E               A        E      Gbm
And there's so much left to say I guess I'm just the bigger guy
            Bm             E                 A    E       Gbm
And there's too much on my mind that I don't even want to try
     Bm               E              A      E       Gbm
It's not far from the ordinary, they do say love is blind
      Bm                    E          A
But I guess that's just the way things go

Verse 1:
Bm                 E           A  E Gbm
Can't remember how to say your name
Bm             E         A    E Gbm
Let alone count all the freckles on your face
Bm        E                A     E Gbm
a distant memory I used to know      
Bm                   E         A E Gbm
I guess   that's just the way  things go
       Bm                   E         A
I guess   that's just the way  things go

Verse 2:
Bm             E                A E Gbm
Can't remember when you said you called
Bm             E               A E Gbm
Miles away and it was still my fault
Bm             E              A E Gbm
The love you said you had, it sometimes showed
    Bm        E              A E Gbm
But I guess that’s just the way things go
    Bm            E          A E Gbm
Guess that’s just the way things go

Chorus:
            Bm           E                    A       E Gbm
And there's so much left to say I guess I'm just the bigger guy
            Bm           E                    A       E Gbm
And there's too much on my mind that I don't even want to try
       Bm           E                    A       E Gbm
It's not far from the ordinary, they do say love is blind
       Bm                E
But I guess   that's just the way things go
A E Gbm       Bm                   E         A
         I guess   that's just the way  things go

Verse 3:
Bm             E              A E Gbm
Didn't think you'd ever stoop so low
Bm             E             A E Gbm
  Getting with the only girl you know
Bm             E               A E Gbm
a lousy route that only makes me say
Bm             E                          A E Gbm
That's pretty lame, but that's the way things go
Bm             E               A E Gbm
guess that’s just the way things go

Verse 4:
Bm             E              A E Gbm
Passed your house while I was on a train
Bm             E             A E Gbm
  In my mind you'll always stay the same
Bm             E             A E Gbm
I'm happy now, I ought to let you know
Bm             E                        A E Gbm
But I guess that's just the way things go
Bm             E               A E Gbm
Oh, I guess that’s just the way things go
Bm              E                    A E Gbm
And I don't mind that that's the way things go

Outro:
Bm              E              A E Gbm
And I don't mind, I don't mind
Bm           E          A E Gbm
I don't mind, I don't mind
Bm           E          A E Gbm
I don't mind, I don't mind
Bm             E                        A E Gbm
Oh, I guess that's just the way things go
Bm             E               A
Oh, I guess that’s just the way things go
