Intro: Gm
 
Verse 1:
Eb                 Gm
This part is tricky
                          F
When we know the spark is gone
                           F
But we're scared of movin' on€…(yeah)
 

Eb                 Gm
And it gets harder
                         F
When €…the deed is finally done
                     F
And I€ see you havin' fun (oh yeah)
 

Eb            Gm
If I'm honest
                      F
I enjoyed it while it lasted
                  F
But I'll get past it (oh yeah)
 

Eb                        Gm
This ain't the first time
                       F
We both notice when it shows
                      F
We know how the story goes
 
Pre-chorus:
Eb
You'll sleep with friends of mine
Gm
I'll sleep with people I don't like
Bb
And I'll always wanna call
Bb
But you won't wanna waste your time
 

Eb
I'll see you in the street
Gm
And you'll try not to look at me
F
And I'll miss how it used to be
(nc)
(I know)
 
Chorus:
                         Eb   Gm
Cause that's just how it goes
                   Bb
That's just how it goes
                   Eb   Gm
That's just how it goes
                   F
That's just how it goes
 
Verse 2:
Eb                  Gm
And I don't want to
                         F
Have to wonder where you are
 
If you're at my favorite bar
 

Eb                    Gm
You shouldn't have to
                        Bb
Miss a party 'cause I'm there
                       Bb
But I think we're well aware
 
This is always how it goes
 
Pre-chorus:
Eb
You'll sleep with friends of mine
Gm
I'll sleep with people I don't like
Bb
And I'll always wanna call
Bb
But you won't wanna waste your time
 

Eb
I'll see you in the street
Gm
And you'll try not to look at me
F
And I'll miss how it used to be
(nc)
(I know)
 
Chorus:
                         Eb   Gm
Cause that's just how it goes
                   Bb
That's just how it goes
                   Eb   Gm
That's just how it goes
                   F
That's just how it goes
 
Bridge:
Eb
And every flame has the same sad ending (yeah)
Bb
And every spark's gotta die
 

Eb
Every flame has the same sad ending (yeah)
F
I stopped asking why
 
Chorus:
(nc)                      Eb   Gm
'Cause that's just how it goes
                   Bb
That's just how it goes
                   Eb   Gm
That's just how it goes
                   F
That's just how it goes
