C     
The way things are goin' in my life,   
         F                                                                      
                                  C  
I'm headed for disaster, livin' fast and faster a Rebel on a rollercoaster   
ride  
                   G                                         C  
That's the way things are goin' in my life  
    C  
The very folks that mean the most to me,  
               F  
their as distant as a sunset, I need 'em every once yet  
                                                               C  
I hurt 'em till they just can't hardly breathe  
                G                                             C   
The very folks that mean the most to me  
                      
                      G                              F  
It would be easy to abandon, a man thats so demanding  
            C                            F                           C   
but somehow she's still standing here with me  
                   G                                         F  
If I could conjure up a miracle, find comfort in the spiritual  
     C                                     G   
I guess i'd prey for some serenity, but that ain't me  
  
    C  
And the way things are goin' in my life  
    F  
I guess it won't be long now, oh before she's gone now  
                                                                     C  
she might say goodbye just to prove me right  
                  G                                          C  
that's the way things are goin' in my life  
  
   
  
same chords as above
