Capo 1st Fret 


Dm Asus4 
Ah baby 
      Dm 
After many tears fall from your eyes 
                     G7           D 
A thousand times you ask yourself why 
    Dm 
The one guy you love has departed 
       A 
You're left alone and broken-hearted 
Dm 
Love just comes and goes 
                         G7     D 
How long it's gonna last nobody knows 

Chorus: 
D  
That's the way love is, baby  
G 
That's the way love is, sugar, how it is 
D 
That's the way love is, baby 
G 
That's the way love is, sugar, how it is 
G             Dm 
That's how it is 

Dm 
I know you're walkin' down a lonesome road 
                             G7    D 
And your heart is carryin' a heavy load 
           Dm 
I know you feel like you ain't got a friend (ain't got a friend) 
         A 
And your whole world's cavin' in (cavin' in) 
        Dm 
Ah, but now is the time to be strong (to be strong) 
                      G7            D                                  
You better forget him now that he's gone (now that he's gone) 
Remember... 

(Chorus) 
(instrumental) 


Listen to me, little darlin' 
    Dm 
The road of love is rough sometimes 
                         G7      D 
But don't let it get the best of you 
          Dm 
I've been hurt by love so many times 
  A 
I know just what you're goin' through 
    Dm 
You wish you were never born 
                      G7            D 
You better forget him now that he's gone 

(Chorus) 


Wipe away your tears 
        Dm 
Love is here today and gone tomorrow 
(That's the way love is, sugar, how it is) 
All your joys turn to sorrow 
(That's the way love is, sugar, how it is) 
One day gladness, and the next day sadness 
(That's the way love is, sugar, how it is) 
...and fade
