Alison Krauss:? 
Doesn't Have To Be This Way 
 
CAPO 4  
 
VERSE: 
 
G5                  D5                        
Sometimes I wonder where you?re coming from when you  
E5                           C5 
Roll in like thunder just to turn around and run? 
       G5                              D5    D5 D5      
It?s a good thing I don?t need you to stay 
 
VERSE: 
G5                            D5     
You smell like moonlight and early morning rain 
E5                   C5               
Pray tell a fool but surrender to your pain 
G5                       D5    D5  D5 
Or find a cure for your decay 
 

C5                           E5 
You?re at your best with an ache in your chest 
         D5            D5          C5 
And that worn out old song that you play 
E5           D5 
Only Jesus and you who long to teach us  
       C5                
Should know and be left to betray.  
 
VERSE: 
G5                           D5 
I don?t know the answer but I know who to blame  
        E5                   C5         
You can choose the dancer if you could choose the flame 
  G5                                    D5  D5 D5   
I think you?ll find they?re one in the same 
   D5                    E5 
It doesn?t have to be this way 
 
BREAK: 
G5  D5  E5  C5  G5  D5  D5 D5 2x 
CHORUS: 
C5                           E5 
You?re at your best with an ache in your chest 
         D5            D5          C5 
And that worn out old song that you play 
E5           D5 
Only Jesus and you who long to teach us  
       C5                
Should know and be left to betray. 
 
VERSE: 
G5                             D5 
I don?t know the answer but I know who to blame  
E5                   C5               
Pray tell a fool but surrender to your pain 
       G5                              D5    D5 D5      
It?s a good thing I don?t need you to stay 
 
BREAK: 
C5  E5  D5  C5  E5  D5  C5  
VERSE: 
G5                  D5                        
Sometimes I wonder where you?re coming from when you  
E5                           C5 
Roll in like thunder just to turn around and run? 
       G5                              D5    D5 D5      
It?s a good thing I don?t need you to stay 
   D5                    E5 
It doesn?t have to be this way
