C

I know a guy that's got a lot to lose.

F

He's a pretty nice fellow but he's kind of confused.

C

He's got muscles in his head that ain't never been used.

G

Thinks he own half of this town.

C

Starts drinking heavy, gets a big red nose.

F

Beats his old lady with a rubber hose,

C

then he takes her out to dinner and buys her new clothes.

G C

That's the way that the world goes 'round.

C

That's the way that the world goes 'round.

F

You're up one day and the next you're down.

C

It's half an inch of water and you think you're gonna drown.

G C

That's the way that the world goes 'round.

C

I was sitting in the bathtub counting my toes,

F

when the radiator broke, water all froze.

C

I got stuck in the ice without my clothes,

G

naked as the eyes of a clown.

C

I was crying ice cubes hoping I'd croak,

F

when the sun come through the window, the ice all broke.

C

I stood up and laughed thought it was a joke

G C

That's the way that the world goes 'round.
