WAY OF THE WORLD (Genesis)

INTRO: Bb / F / Bb / C / Bb / F / Bb / C / 

Dm7  
   If you take the tears from crying eyes

will the hurt just disappear

put a weapon in the hand of a frightened man

will he show no fear

so we stand and we watch while the city lights

go out one by one
                                    Bb         C     Dm7
Mother Nature sits on the other side   with a loaded gun


Bb                       Dm7
   Why is there blue sky?    why is there red sky?
Bb                    C   
   now's the time to ask the reason,
Bb                     Dm7
   should the blue sky,    meet the red sky
Bb                            C
   should the rules have to change at all
D                 D6             Dm7     C      Bb
  we all know whatever they say, time is on our side


D                    D6              
  Oh this world has been here before
 Dm7         C        Bb
just going round and round 


Dm  C  Dm  Bb   BbM7  Am7      BbM7 Gm7
We all a__gree   as   far as we can see
 Dm   C           Dm      Bb
It's just the way of the world,
 BbM7  Am7          BbM7   Gm7
that's how it's meant    to be
 Dm       C   Dm           Bb
There's right and there's wrong
 BbM7   Am7     BbM7          Gm7
There's weak oh and there's strong
 Dm    C          Dm      Bb
It's just the way of the world
     BbM7  Am7          BbM7  Gm7  Dm7
and that's how it's meant   to be


Dm7
   Take the motion from a  spinning wheel and watch it stop

Take the danger out of a naked flame and what have you got

If you take the anger out of a broken heart, you feel no pain
              
Could you swear if you had that second chance
Bb             C      Dm7
  you wouldn't do it again.
