(B)     E              A      C#m  B
It's in the way that you use it,
 E             A     C#m  B
It comes and it goes.
       E              A      C#m  B
It's in the way that you use it,
 E           A     C#m   B
Boy don't you know.

       E                  A      C#m  B
And if you lie you will lose it,
 E           A     C#m   B
Feelings will show.
       E              A      C#m  B
So don't you ever abuse it,
 E           A     C#m   B
Don't let it go.


E          A      C#m          B
Nobody's right till somebody's wrong.
E          A      C#m          B
Nobody's weak till somebody's strong.
E          A      C#m          B
No one gets lucky till luck comes along.
E          A      C#m          B
Nobody's lonely till somebody's gone.


       E              A      C#m  B
It's in the way that you use it,
 E             A     C#m  B
It comes and it goes.
       E             A       C#m  B
It's in the way that you use it,
 E           A     C#m   B
Boy don't you know.

I've seen dark skies, never like this.
E              A      C#m          B
Walked on some thin ice, never like this.
E              A      C#m          B
I've told you white lies, never like this.
E              A      C#m          B
Looked into true eyes, never like this.
