Verse 1
(E minor) (F sharp minor) (E minor) (F sharp minor) (A major) (F sharp minor) (E minor) (F sharp minor)
(A major) 24 (F sharp minor) years of hard work and devotion
24 (E minor) (F sharp minor) years of nine to five each day
(E minor) They (F sharp minor) let him go with (E minor) no
trace (F sharp minor) of emotion
They (E minor) (F sharp minor) let him down
and all that they could say
Is (D major) that's the (A major) way it is (D major)
There's nothing we can do
It's (E minor) just the way (F sharp minor) it is
No (B major) use crying
When the (A major) dice (E minor) come fly (B major) ing
It's the (F sharp minor) way it is (E minor) (B major)
Some (F sharp minor) people say
He should've (E minor) taken a (A major) vacation
Some (F sharp minor) people say
He should've moved to Spain
He (A major) (F sharp minor) took to drinkin',
drinkin' (E minor) for the (F sharp minor) nation
He (E minor) (F sharp minor) hitched a ride on the whiskey train
And that's the (A major) way it is
(B minor) There (D major) was nothin' he could do
It's just (E minor) the way (F sharp minor) it is (E minor)
He (F sharp minor) was walkin' in (D major) dead
man's shoes
Headin' for (C major) twelve bars (B major) and (F sharp minor) (E minor) the blues (A minor)
(D major) (A minor) (D major) (E minor) (F sharp minor)
(D major) (C major) (G minor) (B major) (E minor)
Lying's easy, but the truth is hard
(A major) When you're so far down,
(E minor) you don't know where to start
To find the (D major) way it ends
There's nothing you can do,
(A major) it's just the way it ends (E minor)
You're walking in (D major) dead man's shoes,
betting for (C major) twelve bars (B major) (A major) (F sharp minor) (E minor)
24 years (F sharp minor) of (D major) work (F sharp minor) and devotion
Coun (A major) (F sharp minor) t for nothing in a final score
(A major) You think you're (F sharp minor) doing okay,
heading for a promotion
(A major) They roll the (F sharp minor) dice
and then you're on your way
That's (A major) the way it ends
(D major) There is nothing you can do
It's (A major) just the way it (E minor) is (F sharp minor)
(B major) No use cryin'
when the (C major) dice come flyin' (B major)
It's the (A major) way it (F sharp minor) is (E minor)
You're (F sharp minor) (E minor) walkin' in (D major) dead
man's shoes
Headin' for (C major) twelve (B major) bars
an (E minor) d a blues
Twelve (F sharp minor) (E minor) bars (D major) and a blues (C major) (B major) (A major) (E minor)
12 bars (D major) and blues (C major)
(B major) (E minor)
