[D] [F] [Fm]
[G] [Cm]
There you [Fm] are alone, [Bb] holding back a tear.
[Fm]
Let me [Cm] come and sit beside you with a [Dm] word of cheer.
[C] We have never [Fm]
met, [Bb] not until [Eb] today.
[Fm] I don't know your [Bb] circumstance, so [D] I [Ab] can only [G]
say,
That's just [D] the [F] way [Fm]
it [Bb] goes.
As [Eb] everybody
[Ab] knows, you [Dm] never can [G] expect to win [Cm] a ball.
[G]
[Cm] And if [Fm] your heart [Bb] should break, well, that's [Eb] the chance [Ab] you take.
Forget it, [Fm] friend, [G] that's just the way [Cm] it goes.
And if [Fm] your heart [Bb] should break, well, that's [Eb] the chance [Ab] you take.
Forget it, [Fm] friend, [G] that's just the [C] way it [G] [Cm] goes.
La, la, [Fm] la, la, [Bb] la, la, la, la, [Eb] la, la, la, [Ab] la, la.
Forget [Dm] it, friend, [G] that's just the way it [C] goes.
Did your bubble [Ab]
burst?
Was your [Gm] love untrue?
Did somebody come and steal [D] your paradise from you?
[C] Did [Bb] your mirror [Fm] lie [Bb] in the morning [Eb] light?
[Fm] You will still be young and [Bb] foolish [D] when your hair [G] is white
Because that's just [Fm] the way [Bb] it goes
As [Eb] everybody [Ab]
knows, you never can [G]
expect to [C] win them all
Ain't it the truth?
And [Fm] if your heart [Bb] should break, well [Eb] that's the chance [Ab] you take
Forget it, friend, [G]
that's just the [Cm] way it goes
And [Fm] if your heart [Bb] should break, well [Eb] that's the chance [Ab] you take
Forget it, friend, [G]
that's just the [C] way it goes
[Fm] [Bb]
La [Eb] la la la la [Ab]
la, forget it, friend, [G]
that's just the way it [Cm]
goes
I don't know your name, your [Gm] riches or your fame
All I know is you're unhappy,
[Dm] well I've been the same
[Cm] Someday [Fm] things will change [Bb] round the other [Eb] way
[F]
Then I'll be the one [Eb] who's crying, [Dm] you will [Ab]
come and [G] say
All together now, come on
That's just [Fm] the way [Bb] it goes
As everybody [Ab]
knows, you never [G] can expect [C] to win them all
Ain't it the truth?
And [Fm] if your heart should [Bb] break, well [Eb] that's the chance [Ab] you take
Forget [F] it, friend,
[G] that's just the [Cm] way it goes
[Fm] And if your heart should [Bb] break, well [Eb] that's the chance [Ab] you take
[Fm] Forget it, friend, that's just [C] the way it goes
[Fm] La la la la [Bb]
la la, [Ab]
forget [Fm] it, friend,
[G] that's just the way [C]
it goes
Last chance, come on
[Eb] That's just [Fm] the way it [Bb]
goes
As [Eb] everybody
[Ab] knows, you never [Fm] can [G] expect to win them [Cm] all
And if your heart should break, and [Fm] if your heart [Bb] should break
Well that's [Eb] the chance [Ab] you take
Forget it, [F] friend, [G] that's just the [Cm] way it goes
And if [Fm] your heart should [Bb] break, well [Eb] that's the chance [Ab] you take
Forget [F] it, friend, [G] that's just the way it [Cm] goes

The ballad of John Henry [Eb] is at your throats [Gbm] again
[A]
John Henry was a little baby, sitting on his happy [E] knee
He picked up a hammer and a little piece of steel
And said, hammer gonna be the death of me, Lord, Lord, [A] hammer gonna be the death of me
Well the captain, he said, John Henry, I'm gonna bring me a steam drill around
Gonna take that steam drill out of the job
I'm gonna walk that steel on down, Lord, Lord, that steel on down
Take it, Henry
Henry said to his captain, now a man ain't nothing but a [E] man
[A] Before I let that steam drill beat me down
I'm gonna die with this hammer in my hand, Lord, Lord, die with this hammer in my hand
The captain said to John Henry, I believe this [E] mountain's sinking in
John Henry said to his captain, Lord, Lord, it's only my hammer sucking wind, Lord, Lord, only my hammer [A] sucking wind
Well John Henry, he drove fifteen feet, the steam drill had only made nine
But he drove so hard, he broke his poor heart and he laid down his hammer and he died, [D] Lord, Lord
[A] He laid down his hammer and he died
They took John Henry to the graveyard, buried his body [E] in the sand
Every locomotive come a-roaring by, singing, there lies that steel driver, there lies that
[A]
steel driver
There lies that steel driver, there lies that steel driver
