FUNNY THE WAY IT IS DAVE MATTHEWS BAND Beautiful song! music, lyrics...everything! After reading the other tabs on this song I was kind of dissapointed, I was going to comment with the corrections, but there were more than I expected, small ones off course, but yet important. I just hope that the chords are in the right spot! Enjoy!
