Capotraste na 1ª casa
Em Em7/D C G
This is how it goes you'll get angry at yourself
And think you can think of something else
And I'll hear the clanging of the bells
A
'Cause I can't stop you baby
Em Em7/D C G
'Cause I don't have the bribery in place
No bright shiny surface to my face
So I won't go near the marketplace
A
With what I'm selling lately
G
'Cause this is how it goes
F C
'Cause it's all about trust
G
It's all about shame
F C
And whatever they want
Em
Don't tell them your name
[horns]
Em Em7/D
C G 3x A
Em Em7/D C G
This is how it goes one more failure to connect
With so many how could I object
And you what on earth did you expect
A
Well I can't tell you baby
G
This is how it goes
F C G
Cause it's all about trust, It's all about shame
And whatever they want don't tell them your name
G
A B C D F C F C G (2x)

So I'll try to hold on while you try to let it go
F C G F
You won't tell me it's gone but baby I'll know
G F
Baby I'll know (2x)
G
Baby I'll know
