It's Just the Way Things Go

Robert James

Five songs finished (there will be 11, I think) and as of right now this kid is the single… if I were actually releasing this and needed to release a single… which I’m not.

I also think 90 beats per minute is as fast as any of the songs this month get. That can’t be true, but it might be.

Also, did you know that one of the GarageBand session drummers played with brushes? I sure didn’t.

The signal path for all the guitar parts is an ES-335 to a Ryra The Klone to a Keeley Super Phat Mod to a Fender Bassbreaker 15. The leads put a Crybaby wah ahead of the Ryra.

Chorus
call me crazy but it seems so real how everything is screwed
give me one last chance for declarations everything is new

Verse 1
as bad as its been it always gets worse forever
you know you can’t win as if you’ve been cursed whatever

Verse 2
Its sort of the way that everything ends disaster
Its like they all say it always depends hereafter

Bridge
its just the way things go
its just the way things go
just want to let you know
just let it end gracefully
