Thats the way the world goes round chords
{REGREPLACE-(<.+?>)-()}
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.}
