[Verse]
It is what it is
And it ain’t what it ain’t
Sometimes you’re a sinner
Sometimes you’re the saint
[Verse]
You can climb to the top
Be blown down by the wind
You pick yourself up
And just do it all again
[Verse]
You can touch the ceiling
Or get knocked to the floor
You open a window
Someone closes the door
[Chorus]
No matter where you go
No matter what you do
You’ve got to find a way
To always make it through
No matter what the road
No matter straight or curved
You must always make sure
You never lose your nerve
In the times when you’re sane
Or mad as a hatter
Don’t let things fall apart…
No matter what
[Verse]
You swear to tell the truth
In a world full of lies
Trying to live your best life
Sometimes you feel like you’ll die
[Verse]
Some people call it luck
Others say it’s fate
We have nothing in common
But expected to relate
[Verse]
You can reach for the stars
But they’ll just get higher
You’ve got to keep that spark
Not fall into the fire
[Chorus]
No matter where you go
No matter what you do
You’ve got to find a way
To always make it through
No matter what the road
No matter straight or curved
You must always make sure
You never lose your nerve
In the times when you’re sane
Or mad as a hatter
Don’t let things fall apart…
No matter what
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
It can seem so routine
It can seem so mundane
If you make the same choices
Don’t expect things to change
[Final Chorus]
No matter where you go
No matter what you do
You’ve got to find a way
To always make it through
No matter what the road
No matter straight or curved
You must always make sure
You never lose your nerve
In the times when you’re sane
Or mad as a hatter
Don’t let things fall apart…
No matter what
