Go Your Own Way Lyrics
[Verse 1: Lindsey Buckingham]
Loving you isn't the right thing to do
How can I ever change things that I feel?
If I could, maybe I'd give you my world
How can I when you won't take it from me?
[Chorus: Stevie Nicks & Lindsey Buckingham, Lindsey Buckingham]
You can go your own way, go your own way
You can call it another lonely day
You can go your own way, go your own way
[Verse 2: Lindsey Buckingham]
Tell me why everything turned around
Packing up, shacking up's all you wanna do
If I could, baby, I'd give you my world
Open up, everything's waiting for you
[Chorus: Stevie Nicks & Lindsey Buckingham, Lindsey Buckingham]
You can go your own way, go your own way
You can call it another lonely day
You can go your own way, go your own way
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Chorus: Stevie Nicks & Lindsey Buckingham, Lindsey Buckingham]
(Ah!) You can go your own way, go your own way
You can call it another lonely day, another lonely day
You can go your own way, go your own way
You can call it another lonely day, another lonely day
[Outro: Stevie Nicks & Lindsey Buckingham, Lindsey Buckingham]
You can call it another lonely day, another lonely day
You can call it another lonely day, another lonely day
You can call it another lonely day, oh, yeah, oh, yeah
You can call it another lonely day
Lonely day

What has producer Kevin Caillat said about the song?
Caillat told Music Radar:
Lindsey was beating his acoustic guitar as hard as he could and screaming his lungs out. The first time I heard it, I thought, ‘What the heck is going on?’ [laughs] It sounded so non-musical. I didn’t know if anything would come from it. As the months went on, we filled it...
