Chord/Tab song: The Way It Was

The Killers
Battle Born (2012)

Intro: E - C#m - G#m - A - B (x2)

[E] I drove through the d[C#m]esert last [G#m]night[A][B]
[E] I carried the w[C#m]eight of our last f[G#m]ight[A][B]
E[E]lvis singing "Don't be [C#m]Cruel" and I wonder [G#m]if you feel it too
It's l[A]ike we're going u[B]nder.
[C#m] Somewhere outside the l[F#m]onely Esmeralda County l[G#m]ine,
The question of my h[A]eart came to my mi[B]nd:

If I go [A]on with y[E]ou by my side,
Can it [A]be t[E]he way i[B]t was when we [A]met?
Did you fo[E]rget all about those g[B]olden nights?

[E] Maybe if thi[C#m]eves stole your h[G#m]eart[A][B]
[E] Or maybe we [C#m]just drifted a[G#m]part.
I rem[A]ember dr[B]iving
[E] In my daddy's [C#m]car to the airfield, b[G#m]lanket on the hood,
B[A]acks against the w[B]indshield.
[C#m] Back then this thing was r[F#m]unning on momentum, love and t[G#m]rust.
That paradise is bu[A]ried in the d[B]ust.

If I go [A]on with y[E]ou by my side,
Can it [A]be t[E]he way i[B]t was when we [A]met?
Did you fo[E]rget all about those g[B]olden nights?
(The way it was, it was)

[F#m] All of our plans are falling th[C#m]rough.
[F#m] Sometimes a dream, it don't come t[B]ru[A]e.

A - E - B (X2)

Darl[A]ing. D[E]arling
(If we go on can it [A]be)
Can it [A]be t[E]he way [B]it was when we m[A]et?
Did you fo[E]rget all about them go[B]lden nights?

If I go [A]on with y[E]ou by my side,
Can it [A]be t[E]he way [B]it was?
My heart is t[A]rue, girl, it's j[E]ust you
I'm thinking [B]of
Can it [A]be the way it w[E]as?

[C#m] [-] [G#m] [-] [A] [-] [B]
[E] (Maybe th[C#m]ieves stole your [G#m]heart[A].)[B]

Outro: E - C#m - G#m - A - B (x2)
