The Way That I Live

F Bb Gm F Gm Bb F Bb Gm Dm Am Gm F

[Verse 1]
F        Bb    Gm                F
I forgot love, the jolt from the kick,
F       Dm              Bb     F
Gave me a thrill that I sorely miss.
F              Bb
The branches I broke,
Gm              Dm
The feelings I closed.
Dm              Am  Gm     F
That's just the way that I live

[Verse 2]
F           Bb                  Dm
All in good time, you waited so long,
Dm           Am               Bb
So you could right me from my wrongs.
Bb                Gm
You don't need to forgive,
Gm             C
The way that I live.

[Chorus]
F      C        Bb
You've got that soul.
Gm               F
Wise beyond your years.
F              Dm     Bb        F
You never have needed what you give.
F               Bb
You've got that soul,
Gm             Dm
You keep it in here.
Dm              Am      Bb       F
And that's just the way that you live.

F Bb Gm Dm Am Bb F

[Verse 3]
F               Bb
The streets are alive,
Gm                      F
Through the deepest red ruin
F                   Dm             Bb          F
Can't tell if she's blushing, in a rose tinted hue.
F                  Bb
She's finished her shift,
Gm                Dm
And waits for her lift.
Dm              Am  Gm       F
That's just the way that she lives.

[Verse 3]
F              Bb
The chances we have,
Bb                 Dm
And the moments we lost.
Dm        Am
The river I swim,
Am             Bb
But I couldn't cross.
Bb           Gm
Don't try to forgive,
Gm              C
The way that I live.

[Chorus x2]

[Final Chorus]
F          Bb
I've got a soul,
Gm                     F
It's lived through the years.
F            Dm     Bb     F
I never have needed what I give.
F          Bb
I've got a soul,
Gm           Dm
I keep it in here.
Dm              Am
And that's just the way,
Bb      F       Dm Bb F
That I live.

F               Bb  Gm     F
That's just the way that I live.

F               Bb  C      F
That's just the way that I live.
