[VERSE 1]
B                      A
Change comes in like a rising tide
E               B
Ain't no reason ain't no signs
B                 A
It's just the way future will turn
E                     B               A E B
It's just the way the barricades burn
B                       A
Take one step up take a step on a crack
E                              B
Daddy said it ain't no good to run with a pack
   B                              A
So I'm just going be stumbling on down this road
E                        B
Where it goes I ain't supposed know


[CHORUS]
         B                     A
It ain't ever gonna be like it used to be
      E                     B
Ain't ever gonna be like it used to be
          B                     A
If I wait all my life I'll just wait and see
         E                     B
It ain't ever gonna be like it used to be


[VERSE 2]
B                 A
Love shows up and love goes south
     E                  B
Love knows it all ain't got no doubts
  B                  A
I can't hang on only losers weep
    E                    B
Somebody ain't nobody anybody can keep


[CHORUS]
         B                     A
It ain't ever gonna be like it used to be
      E                             B
Don't want to say goodbye but it'll set me free
          B                     A
If I wait all my life I'll just wait and see
         E                     B
It ain't ever gonna be like it used to be

[BRIDGE]
          B                    F#m
You might say you will but you know you won't
          E                    B
You might think you do but you know you don't
    B                                  F#m
And once you give it up there ain't no getting it back
         E                          B
It don't matter if you're Cyrano de Bergerac
          B                     A
I'm ain't looking back I'm just looking up
  E                   B
I ain't no fool but I never know much
B                       A
Momma told me baby just grab it and run
          E                       B
You gotta take your shot or it'll take you down


[CHORUS]
         B                     A
It ain't ever gonna be like it used to be
      E                             B
Don't want to say goodbye but it'll set me free
          B                     A
If I wait all my life I'll just wait and see
         E                                                               B
It ain't ever gonna be ever gonna be ever gonna be ever gonna be like it used to be
