[Intro]
E
[Chorus]
A
It's not supposed to be that way
E
You're supposed to know I love you
B7
But it don't matter anyway
E
If I can't be there to control you.
[Verse]
A
And like the other little children
E
You're gonna dream a dream or two
B7
But be careful what you're dreamin'
E
Soon your dreams'll be dreamin' you.
[Chorus]
A
It's not supposed to be that way
E
You're supposed to know I love you
B7
But it don't matter anyway
E
If I can't be there to console you.
[Verse]
A
When you go out to play this evenin'
E
Play with fireflies till they're gone
B7
Then you'll rush to meet your lover
E
Play with real fire til the dawn.
[Chorus]
A
It's not supposed to be that way
E
You're supposed to know I love you
B7
But it don't matter anyway
E
If I can't be there to console you.
[Fade]
