    \[Mi]This day is getting ol\[Do#m]der,
    In \[Sol#]fading light it's \[La]beautiful.

  \beginverse*
    Still, I took all my chances,
    Earned myself an even score.
    Try to learn my lessons well.
    And I don't have the answers,
    For those questions anymore.
    Only love can be both heaven and hell.
  \endverse

  \beginchorus
    \[Mi]So sturdy up, sturdy up your\[Do#m]{ heart},
    \[Sol#]{For }the road is long ah\[La]ead.
    \[Mi]I'll be with you even though we're \[Do#m]apart,
    \[Sol#]{But }your road is yours to \[La]{tread}.
    And\[Mi]{ so it} goes, and so \[Do#m]{it goes},
    And so\[Sol#]{ it }goes, slows your mind\[La]{, mind}, mind,
    And so \[Mi]{it goes}, and so \[Do#m]{it goes},
    And so \[Sol#]{it goes}, slows \[La]{your} mind, mind, mind, mind, mind.

  \beginverse
    I've grown old on this ocean,
    Gave her all, my stronger years.
    Gave my wife my devotion,
    When she died, the ocean my tears.
  \endverse

  \beginverse*
    I've tried to teach you well son,
    All of everything I knew.
    Of how to live this life be true.
    Don't bow your head to no one,
    And no matter what you do,
    If you start then see it through.
  \endverse
