And So It Goes

[Intro]

[Verse 1]
C         F                Am
 In every heart there is a room
  C                  G
A sanctuary safe and strong
   C        F                  Am
To heal the wounds from lovers past
  C     F       F/G    C
Until a new one comes along
           F               Am
I spoke to you in cautious tones
    C                      G
You answered me with no pretense
    C       F               Am
And still I feel I said too much
   C       F     F/G    C
My silence is my self defense

[Chorus]
          C/Bb      Am7    Gsus4/Ab
And every time I've held a rose    
   C      Am     D/F#     G
It seems I  only felt the thorns
    C    C/B     C/Bb    Am7       Gsus4/Ab
And so it   goes,    and so it goes
    C          Am     D/F#   G
And so will you  soon I   suppose

[Verse 2]
          F      C         Am
But if my silence made you leave
     C                         G
Then that would be my worst mistake
   C      F                    Am
So I will share this room with you
    C       F         F/G      C
And you can have this heart to break

[Interlude]
        | F - - | Am - - | C F F/G |

[Chorus]
C            C/Bb   Am7      Gsus4/Ab
 And this is why my eyes are closed  
     C           Am    D/F#         G
It's just as well  for all I've seen
    C    C/B     C/Bb    Am7   Gsus4/Ab
And so it   goes,    and so it goes    
    C          Am   D/F#    G
And you're the only one who knows

[Verse 3]
           F                 Am
So I would choose to be with you
       C                          G
That's if the choice were mine to make
    C       F              Am
But you can make decisions too
    C       F         F/G
And you can have this heart to break
C F Am C F
G    C     C/Bb      Am7       Gsus4/Ab
 And so it goes, and so it goes
    C          F    F/G          C
And you're the only one who knows
