Intro Am
Becky (Am) Johnson bought the farm, put a needle in her arm
That's the (E7) way that it goes, that's the (Am) way
And her (Am) brother laid her down in the cold Kentucky ground
That's the (E7) way that it goes, that's the (Am) way
Chorus
That's the (C) way that it (Am) goes
Every(F)body's buying little baby (C) clothes (G)
That's the (C) way that it (Am) ends
Though there (F) was a time when (E7) she and I were (Am) friends
Well, Mi(Am)randa ran away, took her cat and left LA
That's the (E7) way that it goes, that's the (Am) way
She was (Am) busted, broke and flat, had to sell that pussy cat
That's the (E7) way that it goes, that's the (Am) way
Chorus
That's the way that it goes, everybody's buying little baby clothes
That's the way that it ends
Though there was a time when he and I were friends
See the (Am) brightest ones of all, early in October fall
That's the (E7) way that it goes, that's the (Am) way
While the (Am) dark ones go to bed with good whiskey in their head
That's the (E7) way that it goes, that's the (Am) way
Now Billy (Am) Joe's back in the tank, you tell Russo, I'll tell Frank
That's the (E7) way that it goes, that's the (Am) way
Did he (Am) throw her down a well, did she leave him for that swell?
That's the (E7) way that it goes, that's the (Am) way
Chorus
That's the way that it goes, everybody's buying little baby clothes
That's the way that it ends
Though there was a time when all of us were friends
When you (Am) lay me down to rest, leave a pistol in my vest
That's the (E7) way that it goes, that's the (Am) way
Do you (Am) miss my gentle touch, did I hurt you very much?
That's the (E7) way that it goes, that's the (Am) way
Chorus
That's the way that it goes, everybody's buying little baby clothes
That's the way that it ends
Though there was a time when you and I were friends
