Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

I know a gal got a lot to lose

She's a pretty nice lady but she’s kinda confused

Got muscles in her head ain't never been used

Thinks she owns half of this town

Starts drinking heavy gets a big red nose

And she beats her old man with her pantyhose

And takes him out and buys him new clothes

That's the way that the world goes ' round

That's the way that the world goes 'round

One minute you’re up and the next you’re down

It's a half an inch of water and you think you're gonna drown

That's the way that the world goes ' round

Well I was sittin’ in the tub just a countin’ my toes

When the radiator broke and the water froze

Got stuck in the ice without any clothes

Naked as the eyes of a clown

I was crying ice cubes hoping that I'd croak

When the sun came through the window and the ice all broke

I said son of a gun man that’s just a joke

And that's the way that the world goes ' round

That's the way that the world goes 'round

One minute you’re up and the next you’re down

It's a half an inch of water and you think you're gonna drown

That's the way that the world goes ' round
