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