Jeffrey Foucault - That's the way the world goes round chords
Start Jamming...
I know a guy who's got a lot [E] to lose
[A] He's a pretty nice fella
[Am] He's kinda confused
[E] He's got muscles in [G#m] his head
[C#] Never been used
[F#] He thinks he owns half [C#m] of this [B] town
He [E] starts drinking heavy
Gets a big red nose
[A] And he beats his old lady
[Am] With a rubber hoe
[E] And takes her [G#m] out to dinner
And [C#] buys her new clothes
[F#] That's the way that the world [E] goes round
That's the way that the world goes round
[A] You're up one day
[Am] The next you're down
[E] It's a half an [B] inch of water
[C#] You think you're gonna drown
That's the way [B] that the world [E] goes round
I
[A] [Am]
[E] [C#]
[G#] [A#] [B]
[G#m] [E] was sittin' in the bathtub
Countin' my toes
[A] When the radiator broke
The [Am] water all froze
[E] I got stuck in [G#m] the ice
[C#]
Without my clothes
[F#] Naked as the eyes of a [B] clown
I [E] was cryin' ice cubes
Hopin' I'd [A] croak
When the sun came through the window
[Am] The ice all broke
I stood up [B] and laughed
[C#] I thought it was a joke
That's [F#] the way that [B] the world goes [E] round
That's the way that the [A] world goes round
You're up one day
[Am]
The next you're down
It's a [E] half an inch of [B] water
[C#] You think you're gonna drown
