E5                    C#5
This day is getting older,
 Ab5                     A5
in fading light it's beautiful.
E5                        C#5
This wind is blowing colder,
 Ab5                          A5
and too soon I'll feel it's pull.

E5
Still, I took all my chances,
 C#5
earned myself an even score.
 Ab5                      A5
Try to learn my lessons well.
E5
And I don't have the answers,
       C#5
for those questions anymore.
   Ab5                              A5
Only love can be both heaven and hell.

E5                           C#5
So sturdy up, sturdy up your heart,
      Ab5               A5
for the road is long ahead.
     E5                              C#5
I'll be with you even though we're apart,
        Ab5                  A5
but your road is yours to tread.
   E5                      C#5
And so it goes, and so it goes,
       Ab5                       A5
and so it goes, slows your mind, mind, mind,
     E5          C#5                    Ab5                 A5
And so it goes... and so it goes, and so it goes, slows your mind, mind, mind,

mind, mind.

I've grown old on this ocean,
Ab5                      A5
gave her all, my stronger years.
E5                  C#5
Gave my wife my devotion,
Ab5                          A5
when she died, the ocean my tears.

E5

C#5
all of everything I knew.
Ab5                         A5

E5
Don't bow your head to no one,
C#5
and no matter what you do,
Ab5                         A5
