[Verse 1]
C# F#sus2 C#
Sunrise came with a calm across the clouds
C# F#sus2 C#
Big, blue sky and the sounds of life all around
C# C#9
Well the bells were ringin' and those birds they were singin'
F# F#/F D#7
But there was nothing he could say to change her mind
[Chorus]
C#
'Cause though he'd once walk beside her
G#7 C# G#7
Now she's just walkin' by
[Verse 2]
C# F#sus2 C#
Starin' at the ceiling, watching clock hands tick so slow
C# F#sus2 C#
Glaring at the TV, read the paper, maybe turn on the radio
C#
Now he's sittin' all alone,
C#9
gettin' high, he's gettin' low
F# F#/F D#7
He'll have to take a second look on down the line
[Chorus]
C#
'Cause though he'd once walk beside her
G#7 C# G#7 C#
Now she's just walkin' by

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

Big, blue sky and the sounds of life all around

Well the bells were ringin' and those birds they kept on singin'
