VERSE 
C 
He gets his information from overhearing conversations. 

G 
He doesn't ask questions,  

D 
doesn't learn many lessons. 

C 
And he keeps his mouth shut, 


till he boils over, and he blows up 

G 
And then he can't form his words right,  

D 
they don't fit together so tight 

Pre-Chorus 
      Em  F#m G                          Em F#m G  
And I hope to God that he will find his name 
  
                    G 
and not listen to his so called friends 

                D  
when they so boldly say: 

Chorus 

Em             D           G         C 
'This is the way, that you are,' 


Don't let them say 

Em            D         G           C  
'This is the way, that you are' 

VERSE 

She doesn't have much to say about yesterday 
or what happened to her, when she was eight 
So she drinks a lot, and it her makes feel okay 
For the moment, but it's gone when she wakes 


Pre-Chorus 

And I hope you know that someone out there loves you 
So don't give yourself away, 
and don't listen to them when they say: 


Chorus 

'This is the way, that you are,' 
Don't let them say 
'This is the way, that you are' 
No! 
This is the way, that you are. 
Don't let them say 
This is the way, that you are. 
Don't let them say 
This is the way,  
This is the way,  
This is the way that you are. 
Don't let them say, 
This is the way,  
This is the way that you are.
