D          D/G            F#m7
everything comes and goes

             G   G/A           D
marked by lovers and styles of clothes

                D/G           F#m7     E/F#      F#m7
things that you held high and told yourself were true

E/F#    G               G/A               D
lost or changin’ as the days come down to you

        A   E   D/G
down to you,        constant stranger;

        G/A                        Bm7
you’re a kind person, you’re a cold person too

             A    E   G   D/A   Esus4   E   Dm7
it’s down to you

            D           C/D
you go down to the pick-up station
cravin’ warmth and beauty
    Dm7            D       C/D
you settle for less than fascination;
a few drinks later you’re not so choosy
         Dm7           D          C/D
when the closing lights strip off the shadows
on this strange new flesh you found
Dm7           D            C/D
clutching the night to you like a fig leaf,
you hurry to the blackness and the blankets
                                   A7sus4
to lay down an impression and your loneliness
Bm7A/BBm7A/BEBm7
       D                 D/G
in the morning there are lovers in the street

F#m7
they look so high;

                    G                G/A             D
you brush against a stranger and you both apologize

                   D/G
old friends seem indiff’rent;

  F#m7        E/F#            F#m7
you must have brought that on

G                   G/A         Am7 D    Em7   D
old bonds have broken down; love is gone

C   Em7          A
oh, love is gone

                D/G      C#m7
written on your spirit the sad song

F  G         C   G/C  D  D/G  A
   love is gone

D          D/G             F#m7
everything comes and goes;

                      G
pleasure moves on too early

G/A                    D
and trouble leaves too slow

                 D/G
just when you’re thinkin’

       F#m7    E/F#   F#m7
you’ve fin’lly got it made

E/F#    G
bad news comes knockin’

G/A            D
at your garden gate

             A   E   D/G
knockin’ for you,        constant stranger;

         G/A
you’re a brute, you’re an angel

               Bm7
you can crawl, you can fly too

             A   E   G
it’s down to you

   D/A           E        Esus4   E
it all comes down to you
