Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

I know a gal got a lot to lose

She's a pretty nice lady but she’s kinda confused

Got muscles in her head ain't never been used

Thinks she owns half of this town

Starts drinking heavy gets a big red nose

And she beats her old man with her pantyhose

And takes him out and buys him new clothes

That's the way that the world goes 'round

That's the way that the world goes 'round

One minute you’re up and the next you’re down

It's a half an inch of water and you think you're gonna drown

That's the way that the world goes 'round

Well I was sittin’ in the tub just a countin’ my toes

When the radiator broke and the water froze

Got stuck in the ice without any clothes

Naked as the eyes of a clown

I was crying ice cubes hoping that I'd croak

When the sun came through the window and the ice all broke

I said son of a gun man that’s just a joke

And that's the way that the world goes 'round

That's the way that the world goes 'round

One minute you’re up and the next you’re down

It's a half an inch of water and you think you're gonna drown

That's the way that the world goes 'round

Standard (EADGBE)

Well I know a guy that's got a lot to lose,

He's a pretty nice fella, kinda confused.

He's got muscles in his head ain't never been used,

He thinks he owns half of this town.

Well he starts drinkin' heavy, gets a big red nose,

Then he fights with his lady, until it shows.

He takes her out to dinner, and buys her new clothes,

And that's the way that the world goes 'round.

{:Chorus:}

That's the way that the world goes 'round,

You're up one day, the next you're down,

It's half inch of water, but you think you're gonna drown,

That's the way that the world goes 'round.

I was sittin' in the bathtub, a-countin' my toes,

When the radiator broke, the water all froze.

I got stuck in the ice, without my clothes,

Naked as the eyes of a clown.

I was crying those ice cubes, hoping I'd croak,

When the sun came through the window, the ice all broke.

I stood up and laughed; I thought it was a joke,

That's the way that the world goes 'round.

{:Chorus.}

{:Chorus.}

Did you ever stand and shiver

While you were staring at a river?

That's the way that the world goes 'round. (repeat...)

{:Chorus.}
