The Way Things Go

Intro: You know when you're young and you know everything The sky is the limit and the grass is a little more green No matter where you are And I coulda swore back when I was 15 I'd go to college and get my business degree I never made it that far God put a big old ranch in my plans And he put this guitar in my hands So much for crystal balls and wishin on stars As you're watchin them fall to the ground Yeah you can dream big and you can dream small But it all comes down to the luck of the draw so I found Cause its gonna rain as soon as you wash your car And as sure as you go on and give up you're heart a curve gets thrown That's the way things go I woulda tattooed her name on my arm If you would've asked me I'd bet the whole damn farm And more on us So much for her being my meant to be Cause she changed her mind like the wind and the joke was on me She left me in the dust But if she hadn't left my heart black and blue I woulda never found you So much for crystal balls and wishin on stars As you're watchin them fall to the ground Yeah you can dream big and you can dream small But it all comes down to the luck of the draw so I found Cause its gonna rain as soon as you wash your car And as sure as you go on and give up you're heart a curve gets thrown That's the way things go You'll never know if you took the right fork in the road Until you get where you're going it all unfolds So much for crystal balls and wishin on stars As you're watchin them fall to the ground Yeah you can dream big and you can dream small But it all comes down to the luck of the draw so I found Cause its gonna rain as soon as you wash your car And as sure as you go on and give up you're heart a curve gets thrown That's the way things go Oh oh Oh oh Oh oh End on (Strum Once)
