'The Way It Is'
(Nicole Atkins)

Neptune City (2007)

This is the first song I have ever tried to learn by ear and here are 
the results. It sounds right to me, but you be the judge.
========

           
Don't tell me
                             
My love's not the one that I want
                             
That he's not the one that I need
I'd rather 
              
find out for myself
      
           
You're the one
                              
Who shakes at the touch of my hand
                                 
but can't decide where he should stand
         
If I was smart
          
I'd never call you, call you

ever again

    
Oh, in my ears 
                 
my blood is just roaring
                                
when he's the only one I've ever wanted
                                 
I suppose that's just the way it is

                |   | 

                         
Just think this could be
                
The last time I hold you, hold you

ever again

                      
Oh, I don't think I'll ever sleep till
  
morning
                               
Coz he's the only one I've ever wanted
        
Oh, and in my ears
                 
my blood is just roaring
                               
Coz he's the only one I've ever wanted
                             
I suppose that's just the way it is
