Jewel - Sometimes It Be That Way

Title: Sometime It Be That Way
Album: This Way
The chords written above the lyrics are generally right. When you listen
to the song, you`ll hear the extra notes.
On the D`s, just go back and forth from a D to a Dsus4.
The c`s go from C to C9 (i think it`s a c9)
The G`s lift your 1st and 2nd fingers to hit the strings open, follow the rhythm.
Capo 2nd fret

[Intro]
G D C G
G D
Night with its shattered teeth attempts to speak
C G
My pen is present but courage left via the sink
G D
And I`m sorry I snuck up on you from behind
C G
I`m sorry not all my love letters did rhyme
D G
And I`m sorry that Jesus died for my sins
D G
And I swear to God it won`t happen again
D C
And I`m sorry if it was my swerve that tempted you to sway
D G (G)
Oh well, sometimes it be that way
G D
And Romeo was a very nice man
C G
He said Jewel, I don`t think you quite understand
G D
And I`m sorry if you had to explain it like this
C G
I`m sorry I was a point you were destined to miss
D G
And I`m sorry I spoke to you irreverently
D G
Down in the hollow by the old olive tree
D C
And I`m sorry if my heart breaking ruined your day
D G (G)
Oh well, sometimes It be that way
[Chorus]
G D A G
I said Oh well, I got nothing left to sell
D A G
This love was a bell that rang unheard in the air
D A G (G)
I was bound to find out that you didn`t care
A D (G)
Oh well, sometimes it be that way
G D
And Aphrodite with her neon lamp
C G
Kissed Neptune they put her face on a stamp
D
And I`m sorry I used it to mail a letter to you
C G
I`m sorry I`m glue and the rest bounces off of you
D G
I`m sorry not even this jet`s metal wings
D G
Could get across these simple things
D C
And I`m sorry if I ever sang your name in vain
D G (G)
Oh well, sometimes it be that way
[Chorus]
G D A G
I said Oh well, I got nothing left to sell
D A G
This love was a bell that rang unheard in the air
D A G
I was bound to find out that you didn`t care
A D (G)
Said Oh well, sometimes it be that way
G D
And flame licks the air with its silver tongue
C G
Night has many hands but I have just one
D
And I`m sorry I walked in on you unexpectedly
C G
I`m sorry I didn`t serve you both Camomile tea
D G
And I`m sorry I didn`t always have a match
D G
That could start a fire big enough for your heart to catch
D C
And I`m sorry if my swerve tempted you to sway
D G (G)
Oh well, sometimes it be that way
[Chorus]
G D A G
I said Oh well, I got nothing left to sell
D A G
This love was a bell that rang unheard in the air
D A G
I was bound to find out that you didn`t care
A D
Oh well, sometimes it be that way
A D
Oh well, sometimes it be that way
