Am C
Get it wrong and everyone'll say
F
You get a boat out
F
Just to see it blown away
Am C
If you lie and think you're okay
F
You set a bone to break
Am C
Living on a little summer wage
F
Then break down
F
And you're fallin' all the way
Am C
Get it wrong and everyone'll say
F
Ain't that the way, ain't that the way
C
I'll stay by your side
G
Til the darkness passes
Am C
I'll stay by your side
F
Til the storm is through
Am C
Out alone you've gone a long ways
F
Got a weak will
F
And a thing you couldn't say
Am C
Never sank, you rowed a load over
F
The early mountain lake
Am C
Now you're on, you're farther on gone
F
Countin' on someone
F
That you say is just a pawn
Am C
Get it wrong and everyone'll say
F
Ain't that the way, ain't that the way
