How Its Going To Be

• C

Intro:

C  G  C  G 

C  Am  G  C 

C                             G 
   Across the city steam and light 
       C                          G 
Off a runway to the manufactured night 
C                              Am 
   In storybooks you’ll never find 
Bm                            Em 
   In paper armor that you’d mind 
C                                      Am 
   They’ll hold the match to you this time 
                                    G 
And watch the smoke rings fit the crime 

C                            G 
   In moments you cannot reprise 
        C                                 G 
Like a soldier or a watch that you can’t wind  
C                                        Am 
   We fought the world with hands twice-tied 
Bm                                  Em 
   The people cheered, the captain cried 
C                          Am 
   I’ll keep the souvenir inside 
                        G 
It’s just better in my mind 

    Em         Bm 
And I wouldn’t lie 
   G 
I never really wanted more 
                         Em 
Than what I ever really needed after all  
                             G 
Someone that hates to see me go 

C                               G 
   You made a promise then you hide 
         C                               G 
And you said we’d all be dead by twenty-five  
C                              Am 
   It’s not your disappointed sigh 
Bm                               Em 
   It’s not you traded this for pride 
C                           Am 
   Not that we really even mind 
            G 
We’re just bored, you’re still alive 

    Em         Bm 
And I wouldn’t lie 
   G             C 
If I tried, take me down 
       Am    D        G 
And if I... die here now 

D   Em    Em   C - D 

G   F#m   Em   C - D 

 G                                 D 
Wishing wells and magic spells and everything between 
Em 
Can you tell me what it’s like? 
    C   D    C    D  G 
Or how it’s going to be?
