The Only Way Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][F#m][Bm][F#m]
[G][Em]
[D][A]

[Verse 1]
I read the pa[D]per
I watch [F#m]the news
It seems there's [Bm]only
pain and sufferin'
And there ain't [F#m]much I can do
It's so [G]senseless
I feel de[A]fenseless
So small
[D]

[Verse 2]
[A]
I could shut my win[D]dows
Bolt my [F#m]doors
But if [Bm]I don't feel safe enough
To speak [F#m]my mind anymore
Then what's [G]the use
I've nothing left to [A]lose
And no farther to fall
[D]

[Verse 3]
So I'm gonna [A]love
I'm gonna be[Bm]lieve
I'm still gonna [A]dream
But I'm gonna [Bm]roll up my sleeves
Give [F#m]everything until
I've nothing [G]left to give
That's the [D]only way [A]that
I know how to live
[G]

[Verse 4]
It was [D]a nightmare
No tongue can [F#m]tell
[Bm]The streets of New York city
Looked just [F#m]like the gates of Hell
In [G]a flash
The smoke and the [A]ash
[Asus4]Falling down like r[D]ain[A]

[Verse 5]
But they circled [D]wagons
They [F#m]gathered round
[Bm]As they bravely pulled their brothers
And their sis[F#m]ters from the ground
[D]And [G]I know
I owe [Asus4]them more[A]
[Asus4]Than to be afraid

[Interlude 1]
[D][A][Bm]
[A][Bm][F#m][G]

[A][G][A][Bm]
[A][Bm][F#m][G]
[D][A][Asus4][A]

[Verse 6]
Why seek [D]vengeance?
What comes of [F#m]war?
I know [Bm]freedom has a price
But it does[F#m]n't keep score
It's too much [G]to swallow
It's left me [A]hollow
After all this [D]time[A]

[Verse 7]
I won't tell [D]you
What to believe
[F#m]Cause I'm too young[Bm]
to be so cynical
And too [F#m]old to be naive
Every [G]action
Breeds a re[A]action
So let this be [D]mine[A]
