Mark Erelli - The Only Way CAPO: 4th fret [Intro] C Em F G C [Verse 1]

I read the ^Cpaper And I watch the ^Emnews It seems there's ^Amonly pain and suffering And there ain't ^Emnothing I can do It's so ^Fsenseless I feel de^Gfenceless So ^Csmall ^G

[Verse 2]

I could shut my ^Cwindows I could bolt ^Emdoors But if I ^Amdon't feel safe enough To speak my ^Emmind anymore Then what's the ^Fuse I've nothing left to ^Glose And no further to ^Cfall

[Chorus]

So I'm gonna ^Glove And I'm gonna be^Amlieve I'm gonna ^Gdream But I'm gonna ^Amroll up my sleeves Give ^Emeverything until there's nothing ^Fleft to give That's the ^Conly way ^GI know how to ^Flive

[Verse 3]

It was a ^Cnightmare No tongue can ^Emtell The ^Amstreets of New York city Looked just ^Emlike the gates of Hell In a ^Fflash The smoke and the ^Gash Pouring down like ^Crain ^G

[Verse 4]

But they circled ^Cwagons And they gathered ^Emround As they ^Ambravely pulled our brothers And our ^Emsisters from the ground And I ^Fknow That we owe them ^Gmore Than to be a^Cfraid

[Chorus]

So I'm gonna ^Glove And I'm gonna be^Amlieve I'm gonna ^Gdream But I'm gonna ^Amroll up my sleeves Give ^Emeverything until there's nothing ^Fleft to give That's the ^Conly way ^GI know how to ^Flive

[Verse 5]

So why seek ^Cvengeance? What comes of ^Emwar? I know ^Amfreedom has a price But it ^Emdoesn't keep score It's too much to ^Fswallow It's left me ^Ghollow After all this ^Ctime All of this ^Gtime

[Verse 6]

But I won't ^Ctell you What to be^Emlieve But I'm too ^Amyoung to be so cynical And too ^Emold to be naïve Every ^Faction Breeds a re^Gaction So let this be ^Cmine

[Chorus]

So I'm gonna ^Glove And I'm gonna be^Amlieve I'm gonna ^Gdream But I'm gonna ^Amroll up my sleeves Give ^Emeverything until there's nothing ^Fleft to give That's the ^Conly way ^GI know how to ^Flive
