Written by Willie Nelson
Chorus:) E Esus4 E7 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. A 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. E E sus4 E7 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. When you go out to play this evenin' Play with fireflies till they're gone Then you'll rush to meet your lover Play with real fire til the dawn. (Chorus)
