Verse
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/l/lene_marlin/way_we_are_crd.html ]
Am F C G
I watch you growing sometimes I see myself - in you
Am F C G
It can be scary but kinda funny too
Am F C
Ooh Ooh Ooh Oh
G Am
I hear you talking
F C
A lot of similarities
G Am F
Your choice of words
C G
And all the fantasies
Chorus
C F
Just the way we are
G Am
I guess you've seen it now
Dm Am
A mirror of ourselves sure makes us weird
Am G
Falling down
G F
From a mountain of frights
F Am
What's there to hold on to?
The way you make us all smile and the despair when you just
Won't go to sleep
You could have me walking a mile to make you smile still it's not
Really a weep
I know you fooled me
A million times
I just can't help it
Don't know why
Just the way we are
I guess you've seen it now
A mirror of ourselves sure makes us weird
Falling down from a mountain of frights
What's there to hold on to?
Am G F Am G F
Bridge
G Dm Am
I know you hate it but they really have to do
G
What they do
G Dm Am
You're crying out your wishes I understand
G F
Yet they don't have a clue.
