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
