C Am 
A dog eared Dispirin in your handbag 
A gathering of crumbs and twenty fags 
I'd steal some chewing gum, a few stray coins 
I'm sure you noticed but didn't much mind 

G Am 
Oh 
And so it goes, oh 

C Am 
Here I am in the condiment aisle 
I'm worried about my basil from Israel and New World wine 
I need to lose these poses reset my charms 
To when I left the factory in your arms 

G Am 
Singing oh, oh 
And so it goes 

Am C G  
The words on the page start to swim 
As light catches your face, you're smiling 
This must be what all the fuss is about 

C Am 
You're trying to talk to me all grateful and smiles 
I'm glued to the TV giving one word replies 
It's small and shameful, it's a poor show 
Beat myself up on the way home and go crying to my girl 

G Am 
And so it goes 
Yeah, so it goes 
Yeah, so it goes
