o 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
