Strumming Patterns for Chorus are a bit tricky, and I guess I hear something like a
slide into the C in it,
not sure about that, but this works pretty well for me.
(Intro): G C F
(Verse):
[G]All [C]I s[F]ee
[G]Lying there in [C]front of [F]me
Maybe we were [G]here b[C]e-f[F]ore
[G]I just didn't[C] wanna b[F]elieve
[G]But in all that t[C]ime we n[F]ever talked
You wrote it all down so I couldn't ignore it
(Chorus):
[G]This is the way[C] you[G] want it to[F] be
[G]This is the way[C] you[G] want it to[F] be
Oh, [G]this is the way[C] you[G] want it to[F] be
Guess you don't want me[G][C][F]
[G] [C] [F]
(Verse):
[G]We h[C]ad l[F]ove
[G]Always thought it[C] would be [F]enough
Oh, but then it [G]goes [C]a-[F]way
But I d[G]on't really [C]wanna give[F] up
It f[G]eels like [C]hell to l[F]et you walk
Bet it all down but I couldn't afford it
(Chorus):
This is the way you want it to be
This is the way you want it to be
Oh, this is the way you want it to be
Guess you don't want [G]me[C][G][C][G][F]
(Bridge):
And I never really said it befo[G]re[C][G][C][G][F]
[G][C][G][C]
[G]Bu[F]t I really should have given you so much more
(Chorus):
But this is the way you want it to be
This is the way you want it to be
Oh, this is the way you want it to be
Guess you don't want me
(Outro):
Guess you don't want [G]me[C][F]
Guess you don't want [G]me[C][F]
Yeah, you don't want[G][C][F]
Guess you don't want[G][C][F]
Me
