Dan Fogelberg - The Way It Must Be
INTRO: FF Bb majorBb FF
Baby, how could I have been so vain
Bb majorBb
To make you feel like you're the only one to blame
FF
For all these distances and none of this pain
Baby, how could I have been so blind
Bb majorBb
To presuppose that your needs were just like mine
FF
You've been a prisoner for a long, long time
CHORUS:
C majorC Bb majorBb
'Cause now you run from me and I will set you free
FF
If that's the way it must be
I tried so hard to make you part of me
Bb majorBb
That every time I looked at you I thought I'd see
FF
Someone that you could never, ever be
So full of pride, I could not see straight
Bb majorBb
I thought you'd change, if'n I could only wait
FF
I see the truth now, but it's much too late
CHORUS:
C majorC Bb majorBb
'Cause now you run from me and I will set you free
FF
If that's the way it must be
BRIDGE:
DmDm Bb majorBb FF
Oh oh oh oh oh, how'd it ever get so cold and mean
DmDm Bb majorBb C majorC FF Bb majorBb FF
Oh oh oh oh oh, is there nothing left but silence in between
DmDm Bb majorBb FF
Oh oh oh oh oh, how'd it ever get so cold and mean
DmDm Bb majorBb C majorC FF
Oh oh oh oh oh, is there nothing left but silence in between
Baby, how'd we hold on so long
Bb majorBb
To something both of us must have known was wrong
FF
We're either fools, or must be terribly strong
CHORUS:
C majorC Bb majorBb
'Cause now you run from me and I will set you free
FF
If that's the way it must be
C majorC Bb majorBb
'Cause now you run from me and I will set you free
FF
If that's the way it must be
C majorC Bb majorBb
'Cause now you run from me and I will set you free
FF
