Intro:   D  Bm   G   A    (twice)  


A                  D                      Bm 
You've traveled so far,  the wind in your face 
                       G                     A 
You're thinking you've found the one special place 
               D                       Bm 
where all your dreams will walk out in line, 
               G                          A 
and follow the course you've made in your mind 


                     D               Bm 
Well, it isn't gonna be that way--- 
               G                 A 
It isn't gonna be-----that way.    
                     D               Bm 
Well, it isn't gonna be that way--- 
               G                 A 
It isn't gonna be-----that way.    


  
A            D                       Bm 
I came on my own, and felt much like you 
                G                      A 
I thought I was king, and knew what to do 
               D                        Bm 
But everything burned, and fell from my hand 
              G                    A 
I had to turn back, or build a new plan 
                                          
 
                     D               Bm 
Well, it isn't gonna be that way--- 
               G                 A 
It isn't gonna be-----that way.    
                     D               Bm 
Well, it isn't gonna be that way--- 
               G                 A 
It isn't gonna be-----that way.    


A           D                   Bm   
If I were a God, I’d give you a clue 
                  G                     A 
this minute would crack, and I could go through 
                D                      Bm  
and walk out in time, where no one has been 
                 G                      A 
I'd come back to you, and tell what I'd seen 

 
                     D               Bm 
Well, it isn't gonna be that way--- 
               G                 A 
It isn't gonna be-----that way.    
                     D               Bm 
Well, it isn't gonna be that way--- 
               G                 A 
It isn't gonna be-----that way.    

A                   D                      Bm 
You'll just have to live, and see what you find 
                 G                     A 
and take it from there, and follow the signs. 
                        D                        Bm  
Yeah, you think you can live, and dream your own fate 
                  G                          A 
you think you can wish, and walk through the gate  


                     D               Bm 
Well, it isn't gonna be that way--- 
               G                 A 
It isn't gonna be-----that way.    
                     D               Bm 
Well, it isn't gonna be that way--- 
               G                 A 
It isn't gonna be-----that way.
