[Intro - BPM 85 - 1996]
[Em] Uhh Uh- [Bm] uhh Uh-u [C] hh Uh- [G] uhh
 
[Verse 1]
He was a [C] very special warm and gentle [G] person
who put the [C] music in the world and spoke in [G] rhyme
[D] and it h [Em] urts me that I never really [Bm] knew him
'cause [C] all it would have taken was some [G] time 
you know he [C] always seemed to be there when I [G] stumbled
and when [C] mountains got too steep for me to [G] climb
[D] and it [Em] tears me up to think I never [Bm] touched him
'cause [C] all it would have taken was some [G] time
 
[Chorus] 
Oh oh ohhh
Well, [Em] ain't that just the way that life goes
[Bm] down, down, down, down
[C] movin' way too fast or much too [G] slow
[Em] gettin' up, gettin' high, gettin' down
gettin' [Bm] no, no, nowhere
but [C] not gettin' into someone I should [G] know
 
[Verse 2]
Now he's [C] in another place and I can't [G] reach him
and I [C] feel as though I'm guilty of a [G] crime
[D] I took [Em] all he had to give and gave him [Bm] nothin'
and [C] all it would have taken was some [G] time
 
[Chorus]
Oh oh ohhh
Well, [Em] ain't that just the way that life goes
[Bm] down, down, down, down
[C] movin' way too fast or much too [G] slow
[Em] gettin' up, gettin' high, gettin' down
gettin' [Bm] no, no, nowhere
but n [C] ot gettin' into someone I should kn [G] ow
 
[No drums - Chorus]
Well, [Em] ain't that just the way that life goes
[Bm] down, down, down, down
[C] movin' way too fast or much too [G] slow (drums in)
[Em] gettin' up, gettin' high, gettin' down
gettin' [Bm] no, no, nowhere
but [C] not gettin' into someone I should [G] know
 
[Bridge]
Gettin' [Em] up gettin' high, gettin' down,
gettin' [Bm] no, no, nowhere
Gettin' [Em] up gettin' high, gettin' down,
gettin' [Bm] no, no, nowhere
Gettin' [Em] up gettin' high, gettin' down,
gettin' [Bm] no, no, nowhere
Gettin' [Em] up gettin' high, gettin' down,
gettin' [Bm] no, no, nowhere
 
[Chorus - Just drums]
Well, [Em] ain't that just the way that life goes
[Bm] down, down, down, down
[C] movin' way too fast or much too [G] slow (drums in)
[Em] gettin' up, gettin' high, gettin' down
gettin' [Bm] no, no, nowhere
but [C] not gettin' into someone I should [G] know
