THATÕS NOT HOW IT IS 

One of the best on the CD, surprised no ever did it sooner!!!


 Capo   2nd Fret


INTRO:     Em    Am    Em     Am

    Em                                                 Am
I woke up in bed last night when something came upon me,

    Em                                            Am
I was not lying by myself, but I never felt so lonely

    Em                                                     Am
 SomethinÕs come between us girl, feels like weÕve hit a wall,

    C                                                          B7th
How can I know just how you feel, when we donÕt touch at allÉÉ

    Em                                              Am
This no communication thing is quickly growing old,

    Em                                         Am
This isolation booth IÕm inÉ. is dark and turning cold,

    Em                                                    Am
I used to steal your breath away with just one little kiss,

    C                                                   B7th                               Em
Me and you were so in love back thenÉ but thatÕs not how it is.


CHORUS

IÕd catch moonlight in a bottle, if we could drink a toast to happiness

                Am                                           C                      B7th
Fill my pickup bed with rosesÉ.back it right-up to your door 

                Em                                         Am      
Write your name in candy kisses from here to CarolinaÉ

              C                                                     B7th
If you could change your mind and LovinÕ like beforeÉ..

                                Em                Am            Em         Am
But thatÕs not how it isÉÉÉÉÉÉÉÉÉÉÉÉÉÉÉ..

       Em                                                  Am
I have tossed and turned and rolled it over in my mind                                                            

        Em                                                           Am
Not knowing all the questions Émake the answers hard to findÉ

        Em                                                     Am
I think IÕve covered everythingÉbut still thereÕs something that IÕve missedÉ

        C                                      B7th                                      Em

IÕd catch moonlight in a bottle, if we could drink a toast to happiness,

                  Am                                            C                         B7th
