[Verse 1]
F A#sus2 F
Sunrise came with a calm across the clouds
F A#sus2 F
Big, blue sky and the sounds of life all around
F F9
Well the bells were ringin' and those birds they were singin'
A# A#/A G7
But there was nothing he could say to change her mind
[Chorus]

'Cause though he'd once walk beside her
C7 F C7
Now she's just walkin' by
[Verse 2]

Starin' at the ceiling, watching clock hands tick so slow
F A#sus2 F
Glaring at the TV, read the paper, maybe turn on the radio
F
Now he's sittin' all alone,
F9
gettin' high, he's gettin' low
A# A#/A G7
He'll have to take a second look on down the line
[Chorus]

'Cause though he'd once walk beside her

Now she's just walkin' by

They'd share in their company
F F/G A# A#/A
Like a summer light lays on a bed of leaves
Gm C7
and as he'd close his eye to the world
F F/G A# A#/A
All he could hear was her sweet, pulling melodies
