you can [G] either sink or [C] swim,
[G] [C] And [G] a wise man learns [Am]
to forgive her, [C]
[F] [G] for all she's done [C] to him.
[F] But no one's getting [C] younger, and [F] a [G] few aren't getting [C]
old,
[A] It's all in what you [Em] [A] feel, [D] and not in what [G] you're told.

[Am] It's nothing to [Em] be down about, [D] it's always been [G] that way.
[Am] Oh, I can't go back [Em] to Kansas, I [F] was there [G] just [C] yesterday,
[Am] Oh, I can't go back [Em] to Kansas, [D] it just up and blew [G] away,
