Funny The Way It Is Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

AmLyin’ in the park

On a Gbeautiful day

Sun Emshine in the grass and the Fchildren play

AmSiren’s passin’

GFire engine's red

Someone’s Emhouse is burning down on a Fday like this

The eveAmning comes

And we’re Ghangin’ out

On the front sEmtep

And a car goes by with the Fwindows rolled down

And that Amwar song is playin “why can’t Gwe be friends?”

Someone's Emscreamin’ and cryin’ in the Fapartment upstairs

CFunny the way it is

And if you Gthink about it

SomeBmbody’s goin’ hungry

And someone Felse is eatin’ out

CFunny the way it is

Whether Gright or wrong

Somebody’Bms heart is broken

And it Fbecomes your favorite song

Bridge

AmThe way your mouth feels in your Glover’s kiss

Like a pretty Embird on a breeze

Or Fwater to a fish

But a Ambomb blast brings the building Gcrashin’ to the floor

Hear the Emlaughter while the Fchildren play war

Chorus

CFunny the way it is

And if you Gthink about it

One kid Bmwalks 10 miles to school

While Fanother’s droppin’ out

CFunny the way it is

No matter Gright or wrong

On a soBmldier’s last breath

His bFaby’s being born

Bridge

DmStandin’ on a bridgeC

Watch the water Fpassin’ under Dmme

It must have Cbeen much harder

When there was no bridge just water

DmNow the world is smaCll

Remember how it uFsed to be

DmWith mountains, and oceans, and winters, and rivers and

GStars

Verse

AmWatch the sky the Gjet-planes

So far out of my rEmeach

Is there someone up there lookin’ Fdown on me?

AmBoy chase a bird

So Gclose but every time

He Emnever catch her

But he Fcan’t stop trying

Chorus

CFunny the way it is

And if you Gthink about it

One kid Bmwalks 10 miles to school

While Fanother’s droppin’ out

CFunny the way it is

No matter Gright or wrong

On a Bmsoldier’s last breath

His Fbaby’s being born

CFunny the way it is

No matter Gright or wrong

SomebBmody’s broken heart

And it Fbecomes your favorite song

CFunny the way it is

And if you Gthink about it

One kid wBmalks 10 miles to school

While Fanother’s droppin’ out
