Verse
A F#m
He put on his shirt carefully, making sure that the buttons matched up
D
His sleeves were always too short
A E
But at least it meant he could always see his watch
A
And often he checked the time
F#m
And it would be stopped
D
He always thought it was broken
A E
But then he'd remember he had to wind it, oh
A F#m
Though he knew some day he'd remember to wind it and it wouldn't work after all
D A E
Maybe that would happen on the exact day he didn't think it was broken
[Chorus]
A
Isn't that the way it works
F#m
Isn't that the way it goes
D
While the fox he lurks
A
And while the rooster crows
E A
Isn't that the way things are
F#m
The way the world ain't flat
D A E A
But you can only run so far before you make it back
[Verse 2]
A F#m
He could drink from the sink by craning his head far to one side
D A
The day he figured that out, one of the horses died
E A
It was one of the twins that barely a week'd been alive
F#m
It was the one who could barely stand
D A E
We'd wrapped his legs with gauze and bandages from inside from one of the kitchen drawers
F#m
We called him stretch
D
Cuz he was so skinny and tall
A
Momma said both twins rarely live with horses
E
We was lucky to have one livin at all
A F#m
And me and my momma slept in the stall next to them in the bed of a pickup
D A E
All us kids piled in
A
I remember the momma horse lickin and cleaning up her newborn babies
F#m
She was working so hard (she was working so hard)
D A
She was working so hard (she was working so hard)
E F#m
She was working so hard
D
She was working so hard
A
She was working so hard
E
She was working so hard
[Chorus]
A
Isn't that the way it works
F#m
Isn't that the way it goes
D
While the fox he lurks
A
And while the rooster crows
E A
Isn't that the way things are
F#m
The way the world ain't flat
D A E
But you can only run so far before you make it back
F#m
Isn't that the way it works
D
Isn't that the way it goes
A
While the fox he lurks
E
And while the rooster crows
F#m
Isn't that the way things are
D
The way the world ain't flat
A E
You can only run so far before you make it back
F#m
You can only run so far
D
You can only run so far
A E A D A E A
Before you make it, before you make it back
