Lyrics:

By Eric Clapton and Peter Robertson

Chorus 1
It's in the Way That You Use It,
It Comes and it Goes.
It's in the Way That You Use It,
Boy Don't You Know.

Chorus 2
And If You Lie You Will Lose It,
Feelings Will Show.
So Don't You Ever Abuse It,
Don't Let it Go.

Verse 1
Nobody's Right Till Somebody's Wrong.
Nobody's Weak Till Somebody's Strong.
No One Gets Lucky Till Luck Comes Along.
Nobody's Lonely Till Somebody's Gone.

Verse 2
I've Seen Dark Skies, Never Like This.
Walked on Some Thin Ice, Never Like This.
I've Told You White Lies, Never Like This.
Looked Into True Eyes, Never Like This.

Chorus 3
It's in the Way That You Use It
Boy Don't You Know
So Don't You Abuse It
Man Don't Let it Go
