         INTRO:  E - B - E - B
                 E - B - E - B
                 A - B - A - B
                 A - B - A - B


                         E                B
             I.  you can hear it from the pulpit
                            E           B
                 and on the home on the range
                        E             B
                 and in any backwoods country
                       E            B
                 where things never change.
                         E                B
                 you can hear them rattle wooden swords
                     E                B
                 and quote nostalgically:


                     A          G   E
        CHORUS:  the way it is,
                     A          G   E
                 the way it is,
                     A
                 the way it is
                    D                 A    G   A
                 is how it's meant to be.
                     A          G   E
                 the way it is,
                     A          G   E
                 the way it is,
                     A
                 the way it is
                    D                 A    G   A
                 is how it's meant to be.


                 /// REPEAT INTRO ///


                       E           B
            II.  there are so many housewives,
                                 E               B
                 and they're the ones that procreate.
                    E         B
                 so is it any wonder
                            E             B
                 that their numbers carry weight?
                 E             B
                 and all their little girls
                      E                  B
                 have talking dolls that state:


                 /// REPEAT CHORUS ///


                 /// REPEAT INTRO ///


                 /// REPEAT I (choo-choo beat) ///


                 /// REPEAT CHORUS ///


                 /// REPEAT INTRO ///


        ENDING:  E
