The Way It Is

Pretty simple song, just G power chord then A power chord for the verse. GA Everything is the way it is It's got to be the way it is Everything is the way it is It's got to be the way it is Then just add C and D power chords GA Everything is the way it is CD It's got to be like you say it is GA I need a heartache, but it won't be long CD Till I get to where it's coming on GA A little fame and I know it's true CD You can feel it and it's coming for you GA No matter how hard I've tried to stay CD I feel you pulling me further away Then just A, to G, to D for the chorus AGD Hey hey hey AGD Oo oo oo AGD Hey hey hey AGD Oo oo oo GA Everything is the way it is It's got to be the way it is Everything's the way it is It's got to be the way it is GA Staying young is a trivial game CD You're gettin' older but you stay the same GA You look good when you shaking my way CD But let me think of something awful to say AGD Hey hey hey AGD Oo oo oo AGD Hey hey hey AGD Oo oo oo (I find this part works well, although not in the recording, if you play the chords then palm mute eighth notes of the second chord) G A A(palm muted) Everything is the way it is It's got to be the way it is Everything is the way it is It's got to be the way it is G A A(palm muted) I step back take a total view C D D(palm muted) I take a little, but it's hard to do G A A(palm muted) But I'll call, I'll try to change C D D(palm muted) It's better than to stay the same AGD Hey hey hey AGD Oo oo oo AGD Hey hey hey AGD Oo oo oo AGD Hey hey hey AGD Oo oo oo AGD Hey hey hey AGD Oo oo oo GA Everything's the way it is It's got to be the way it is Everything's the way it is It's got to be the way it is
