[Verse 1]
Am7              Em7
Standing in line marking time
D               Cadd9
Waiting for the welfare dime
G        D                Cadd9
  'Cause they can't buy a job
    Am7                  Em7
The man in the silk suit hurries by
      D                    Cadd9
As he catches the poor old ladies' eyes
G          D          Cadd9
  Just for fun he says "get a job"
 
[Chorus]
G   Fmaj7  C                 Cadd9
             That's just the way it is
G   Fmaj7  C                  Cadd9
             Some things will never change
G   Fmaj7  C                 Cadd9
             That's just the way it is
G   Fmaj7  C         Cadd9
             Ah, but don't you believe them
 
|Am7  Em7  |D  Cadd9 |G   D   |Cadd9
 
[Verse 2]
         Am7                 Em7                D         Cadd9
They say hey, little boy you can't go where the others go
G                  D              Cadd9
  'Cause you don't look like they do
     Am7          Em7                  D             Cadd9
Said hey, old man how can you stand to think that way
        G                  D             Cadd9
Did you really think about it before you made the rules, he said, son
 
[Chorus]
G   Fmaj7  C                 Cadd9
             That's just the way it is
G   Fmaj7  C                  Cadd9
             Some things will never change
G   Fmaj7  C                 Cadd9
             That's just the way it is
G   Fmaj7  C         Cadd9
             Ah, but don't you believe them
 
|Am7  Em7  |D  Cadd9 |G   D   |Cadd9   |
                                   Ooh ya

G   Fmaj7  C                 Cadd9
             That's just the way it is
G   Fmaj7  C                 Cadd9
             That's just the way it is
 
[Verse 3]
           Am7              Em7   D                    Cadd9
Well, they passed a law in '64 to give those who ain't got a little more
G        D         Cadd9
  But it only goes so far
            Am7               Em7
Because the law don't change another's mind
     D                  Cadd9      G       D             Cadd9
When all it sees at the hiring time is the line on the color bar
 
[Chorus]
G   Fmaj7  C                 Cadd9
             That's just the way it is
G   Fmaj7  C                  Cadd9
             Some things will never change
G   Fmaj7  C                 Cadd9
             That's just the way it is
G   Fmaj7                 C             Cadd9
          That's just the way it is, it is, it is, it is

"There must be some way out of here," 
said the joker to the thief, 
"There's too much confusion, 
I can't get no relief. 

Businessmen, they drink my wine, 
plowmen dig my earth, 
None of them along the line 
know what any of it is worth." 

"No reason to get excited," 
the thief, he kindly spoke, 
"There are many here among us

All along the watchtower, 
princes kept the view 
While all the women came and went, 
barefoot servants, too. 
Outside in the distance 
a wildcat did growl, 
Two riders were approaching, 
the wind began to howl.
