# # # C Well I know a guy that's got a lot to lose, F He's a pretty nice fella, kinda confused. C He's got muscles in his head ain't never been used, G G7 He thinks he owns half of this town. C Well he starts drinkin' heavy, gets a big red nose, F Then he fights with his lady, until it shows. C He takes her out to dinner, and buys her new clothes, G C And that's the way that the world goes 'round. C That's the way that the world goes 'round, F You're up one day, the next you're down, C It's half inch of water, but you think you're gonna drown, G7 C 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. Did you ever stand and shiver While you were staring at a river? That's the way that the world goes 'round. (repeat...) That's the way that the world goes 'round, That's the way that the world goes 'round. # # Submitted to the ftp.nevada.edu:/pub/guitar archives # by Steve Putz # 7 September 1992
