It's Like That Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
[D]Unemployment at a record high
People coming, people going,
people born to die
Don't ask me, because I don't know why
But it's like that,
and that's the way it is

[Verse 2]
People in the world try to [D]make ends meet
You try to ride car, train, bus, or feet
I said you got to work hard
to want to compete
It's like that, and that's the way it is
Huh!

[Verse 3]
[D]Money is the key to end all your woes
Your ups, your downs,
your highs and your lows
Won't you tell me last time that
love bought you clothes?
It's like that, and that's the way it is

[Verse 4]
Bills [D]fly higher every [Dm]day
[D]We receive much lower pay
[Dm]I'd [D]rather stay young, go out and play
It's like that, and that's the way it is

[Verse 5]
Huh!
[D]War's going on across the sea
Street soldiers killing the elderly
Whatever happened to unity?
[Dm]It's [D]like that,
and that that's the way it is

[Verse 6]
Disillusion [D]is the word
That's used by me when I'm not heard
I just go through life with
my glasses blurred
It's like that, and that's the way it is

[Interlude 1]
Huh!
[D][Dm]

[Verse 7]
You can [Dm]see a [D]lot in this lifespan
[Dm]Like [D]a bum eating out of a garbage can
[Dm]You notice one time he
[D]was your [Dm]man
It's like that (what?) and [D]that's
the way it is
[Dm]You should've

[Verse 8]
[D]gone to school,
you could've learned a trade
[Dm]But you laid[D] in the bed where
the bums have laid
Now all the time you're crying
that you're [Dm]under[D]paid
[Dm]It's like that (what?) and
that's the [D]way [Dm]it is
[D]Huh!

[Verse 9]
[D]
[Dm]One thing I know is [D]that life is short
So [Dm]listen up,
[D]homeboy, give this a thought
[Dm]The next[D] time someone's teaching
why don't [Dm]you get [D]taught?
It's like [Dm]that (what?) and
that's the way [D]it is
[Dm]If you

[Verse 10]
really think about it
times aren't that bad
The one that flexes with successes
will [D]make you glad
Stop playing, start praying,
you won't be sad
It's like [Dm]that (what?) and
that's the [D]way it is
Huh!

[Verse 11]
When you [D]feel [Dm]you fail[D]
[Dm]some[D]times it hurts
[Dm]For a meaning in life is w[D]hy you search
[Dm]Take the bus or the train,
[D]drive [Dm]to school or the church
It's like [D]that,
and that's [Dm]the way [D]it is
[Dm]Here's another

[Verse 12]
point in life
you [D]should not miss
[Dm]Do not be a [D]fool who's prejudice
Be[Dm]cause we're all [D]written
[Dm]down on [D]the same list
[Dm]It's like that (what?) and
that's the way it is
Huh
[Dm][D][Dm][D]

[Verse 13]
You [Dm]know it's like that,
and [D]that's the [Dm]way it is
Because it's like that,
and that's the way it is
You know it's like that,
and that's the [Dm]way it is
Because it's like that,
and that's the way [Dm]it is
You know it's [Dm]like that, and
that's the way it is
Because it's like that,
and that's the way it is
You know it's like that,
and that's the way it is
Because it's like that, and that's the way it is
