Intro 1

Verse 1
D 
Christmas lights are shining,
G 
D 
stockings have been hung
You're prayin' for your daughter,
G 
A 
lightin' candles for your son
D 
They're livin' in the city now,
G 
D 
you don't see them anymore
G 
A 
This year will not be like the ones before
D 
G 
And the streets are all but empty,
D 
the bars have all shut down
And it's hard to find a friend inside
A 
this godforsaken town
D 
That infamous hit -and -miss from
Bm 
your head down to your toes
D 
I'm sorry, baby,
G 
A 
D 
that's just the way it goes
Once you were a young girl with
G 
D 
lovers by the score
Money by the handful,
G 
you never wanted more
A 
D 
G 
D 
But bitter to leave you as time has its way
It may leave behind little
G 
A 
D 
mouths to feed and drink
G 
And the days go by so slowly when
D 
it used to go so fast
Whiskey does not taste as good when
A 
you hold it for one glass
D 
There's just no way of knowing
A 
Bm 
which way the cold wind blows
D 
G 
A 
D

I'm sorry baby, that's just the way it goes

D 
G 
A 
D 
Well, the
Christmas lights have all come down,
G 
D 
the carols have been sung
You're aching for your children from
G 
A 
the time when they were young
D 
Back when all you wanted was
G 
D 
some time to yourself
G 
A 
D 
Back when your life was something else
G 
And I wish that I could tell you
D 
what it takes to stand up tall
G 
D 
But the moral of this story is
A 
D 
A 
there ain't no more at all
D 
It happened all before you and
Bm 
it will again I suppose
Em 
D 
G 
D 
G 
I'm sorry baby that's just, I'm sorry baby that's just,
D 
G 
A 
I'm sorry baby that's just the way it goes
