C       F               Asus4    Am
In every heart there is a room 
C               F      G
A sanctuary safe and strong 
C       F               Asus4    Am
To heal the wounds from lovers past 
C       F      F      C      
Until a new one comes along 

C       F               Asus4    Am
I spoke to you in cautious tones 
C                       F      G
You answered me with no pretense 
C       F               Asus4    Am
And still I feel I said too much 
C       F      F      C      
My silence is my self defense 

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

C       F               Asus4    Am
But if my silence made you leave 
C                       F      G
Then that would be my worst mistake 
C       F               Asus4    Am
So I will share this room with you 
C       F      F              C      
And you can have this heart to break 

C7        F            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        F            F      C
And so it goes, and so it goes 
Am         D   D7     Gsus4  G 
And you're the only one who knows 

C       F               Asus4    Am
So I would choose to be with you 
C                       F      G
That's if the choice were mine to make 
C       F             G   Am
But you can make decisions too 
C       F      F              C      
And you can have this heart to break

C7        F         F     C
And so it goes, and so it goes
     C          F           C      
And you're the only one who knows
