[Intro] E  C#m  G#  A

[primeira parte]

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

[refrão]

E                           C#m
So sturdy up, sturdy up your heart
      G#               A
For the road is long ahead
     E                              C#m
I'll be with you even though we're apart
        G#                  A
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

E
I've tried to teach you well son
C#m
All of everything i knew
G#                         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
G#                         A
If you start then see it through

[refrão]

E                          C#m
So sturdy up, sturdy up your heart
G#                     A
For the road is long ahead
E                                 C#m
I'll be with you even though we're apart
G#                         A
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
