E                    C#m 
This day is getting older 
 G#                     A 
In fading light it's beautiful 
E                        C#m 
This wind is blowing colder 
 G#                          A 
And too soon i'll feel it's pull 

E 
Still, i took all my chances 
 C#m 
Earned myself an even score 
 G#                      A 
Try to learn my lessons well 
E 
And i don't have the answers 
       C#m 
For those questions anymore 
   G#                              A 
Only love can be both heaven and hell

So sturdy up, sturdy up your heart 
      G#               A 
For the road is long ahead

I'll be with you even though we're apart

But your road is yours to tread 
   E                      C#m 
And so it goes, and so it goes 
       G#                       A 
And so it goes, slows your mind, mind, mind 
     E        C#m                 
And so it goes and so it goes, and so it goes,  
            G#                 A 
Slows your mind, mind, mind, mind, mind

E                     C#m 
I've grown old on this ocean 
G#                      A 
Gave her all, my stronger years 
E                  C#m 
Gave my wife my devotion 
G#                          A 
When she died, the ocean my tears
