[Verse 1]
F# Bsus2 F#
Sunrise came with a calm across the clouds
F# Bsus2 F#
Big, blue sky and the sounds of life all around
F# F#9
Well the bells were ringin' and those birds they were singin'
B B/A# G#7
But there was nothing he could say to change her mind
[Chorus]
F#
'Cause though he'd once walk beside her
C#7 F# C#7
Now she's just walkin' by
[Verse 2]
F# Bsus2 F#
Starin' at the ceiling, watching clock hands tick so slow
F# Bsus2 F#
Glaring at the TV, read the paper, maybe turn on the radio
F#
Now he's sittin' all alone,
F#9
gettin' high, he's gettin' low
B B/A# G#7
He'll have to take a second look on down the line
[Chorus]
F#
'Cause though he'd once walk beside her
C#7 F# C#7 F#
Now she's just walkin' by

[Bridge]
G#m C#7
They'd share in their company
F# F#/G# B B/A#
Like a summer light lays on a bed of leaves
G#m C#7
and as he'd close his eye to the world
F# F#/G# B B/A#
All he could hear was her sweet, pulling melodies

Big, blue sky and the sounds of life all around
F# F#9
Well the bells were ringin' and those birds they kept on singin'

Made him smile as his eyes would open wide
