After 11 months on the road, the boys are back here in their hometown.

And now here's their new hit, The Way It Is, with Tesla.
[Dm]
[D]
[Bm] [F]
[G] [F] [D]
[G] [F] It's your best [G] self proof, [D]
it never was [G] meant [F] for it to be that way.
[G] Never should be the [D] [C]
[Bm] way [G] that it was, half the [C]
[D] day.
The way [C] it is, [Bm] the [G] way that it looks, workin' in [C] the [D] strangest ways.
Even though we [F] could never seem to work [G] things out,
I still love [D] you just the same
I miss your [F] smile and the sparkle in your eyes
[G] You're so beautiful, never [D] change
[C] But wait, [Bm] it's the way [G] that it goes
Happen [C] in day [D] after day
So [C] wait, it's [Bm] the way [G] that it goes
What goes [C] in a [D] stranger's face?
[G]
What is?
[A] [D]
What's your face, [G] your clear hair
[A] In a stranger's face
[D]
Sometimes it's [G] hard hard to believe
Do you believe?
Do you believe?
[A] [D]
[F] Wait, [Bm] it's the way [G] that it goes
[C] Happen in a [D] stranger's face
[Am] [G] [Bm] [G]
[A] [D]
[F] [G]
[D]
[F] [G]
[Dm] [D]
[F] It's the best I [G] knew
It never did and [D] never will
It never was meant for [F] me to be that [G] way
Why must it be that [D] way?
The [C] way it is
[G] The way that it goes
Happen [C] in [D] day after day
[C] [Bm] [G] What goes in [C] a [D] stranger's face?
The way that [C] it [Bm] is
That's the [G] way it is
That's the [C] way it is
[D] Yeah
[Am] [G] [A]
[F] [D] [G] The [Am] way it [D] is
The way it goes
[F#] [G] [A] That's the way it is
[Dm] The way it goes
[G] [A] Happen [D] in day after day
What goes in a stranger's face?
[G] [D] What goes in a stranger's face?
[G] [A] [Dm] [D]
[G] [A] [D] [G]
That's the way it goes
