This day is getting older
Ab A
In fading light it's beautiful
E C#m
This wind is blowing colder
Ab A
And too soon I'll feel its pull
E
Still I took all my chances
C#m
Earned myself an even score
Ab A
Try to learn my lessons well
E
And I don't have the answers
C#m
For those questions anymore
Ab A
Only love can be both heaven and hell
E C#m
So sturdy up sturdy up your heart
Ab A
For the road is long ahead
E C#m
I'll be with you even though we're apart
Ab A
But your road is yours to tread
E C#m
And so it goes and so it goes
Ab A
And so it goes slows your mind mind mind
E C#m Ab A
And so it goes and so it goes and so it goes slows your mind mind mind
Mind mind
E C#m
I've grown old on this ocean
Ab A
Gave her all my stronger years
E C#m
Gave my wife my devotion
Ab A
When she died the ocean my tears
E
I've tried to teach you well son
C#m
All of everything I knew
Ab A
Of how to live this life be true
E
Don't bow your head to no one
C#m
And no matter what you do
Ab A
If you start then see it through
E C#m
So sturdy up sturdy up your heart
Ab A
For the road is long ahead
E C#m
I'll be with you even though we're apart
Ab A
But your road is yours to tread
E C#m
And so it goes and so it goes
Ab A
And so it goes slows your mind mind mind
E C#m Ab

And so it goes and so it goes and so it goes slows your mind mind mind
