And So It Goes  - Billy Joel
	
C	F7		 Am2	Am
In every heart there is a room 
C		F	G
A sanctuary safe and strong 
C	F7		 Am2	Am
To heal the wounds from lovers past 
C	F	F7	C	
Until a new one comes along 

C	F7		 Am2	Am
I spoke to you in cautious tones 
C			F	G
You answered me with no pretense 
C	F7		 Am2	Am
And still I feel I said too much 
C	F	F7	C	
My silence is my self defense 

C7	  F7		F	C
And every time I've held a rose 
Am	   D	F	  Gsus4  G
It seems I only felt the thorns 
C7	  F7		F	C
And so it goes, and so it goes 
Am	   D	D7	Gsus4  G 
And so will you soon I suppose 

C	F7		 Am2	Am
But if my silence made you leave 
C			F	G
Then that would be my worst mistake 
C	F7		 Am2	Am
So I will share this room with you 
C	F	F7		C	
And you can have this heart to break 

C7	  F7		F	C
And this is why my eyes are closed 
Am	   D	F	  Gsus4  G
It's just as well for all I've seen 
C7	  F7		F	C
And so it goes, and so it goes 
Am	   D	D7	Gsus4  G 
And you're the only one who knows 

C	F7		 Am2	Am
So I would choose to be with you 
C			F	G
That's if the choice were mine to make 
C	F7		 Am2	Am
But you can make decisions too 
C	F	F7		C	
And you can have this heart to break
