[Intro]
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.
