Doesn’t Have to be This Way Capo 4 

[Verse 1]

G                       D                       
Sometimes I wonder where are you coming from when you 
Em                          C
Roll in like thunder just to turn around and run…
      G                              D    Dsus D     
It’s a good thing I don’t need you to stay


[Verse 2]

G                           D    
You smell like moonlight and early morning rain
Em                    C              
Pray tell a fool but surrender to your pain
G                       D    Dsus  D
Or find a cure for your decay

[Chorus]

C                          G/B
You’re at your best with an ache in your chest
        D                          C
And that worn out old song that you play
G/B           D
Only Jesus and you who long to teach us 
     C               
Should know and be left to betray.


[Verse 3]

G                          D
I don’t know the answer but I know who to blame 
       Em                   C        
You can choose the dancer if you could choose the flame
 G                                    D    Dsus D  
I think you’ll find they’re one in the same
                          Em
It doesn’t have to be this way


[Break]

G  D  Em  C  G  D  G  D  Em  C  G  D  


[Chorus]

C                          Em
You’re at your best with an ache in your chest
        D                          C
And that worn out old song that you play
Em            D
Only Jesus and you who long to teach us 
      C               
Should know and be left to betray.


[Bridge]

 G                         D
I don’t know the answer but I know who to blame 
Em                    C              
Pray tell a fool but surrender to your pain
     G                               D    Dsus D     
It’s a good thing I don’t need you to stay
