[Verse 1]
C Fsus2 C
Sunrise came with a calm across the clouds
C Fsus2 C
Big, blue sky and the sounds of life all around
C C9
Well the bells were ringin' and those birds they were singin'
F F/E D7
But there was nothing he could say to change her mind
[Chorus]
C
'Cause though he'd once walk beside her
G7 C G7
Now she's just walkin' by
[Verse 2]
C Fsus2 C
Starin' at the ceiling, watching clock hands tick so slow
C Fsus2 C
Glaring at the TV, read the paper, maybe turn on the radio
C
Now he's sittin' all alone,
C9
gettin' high, he's gettin' low
F F/E D7
He'll have to take a second look on down the line
[Chorus]
C
'Cause though he'd once walk beside her
G7 C G7 C
Now she's just walkin' by

[Bridge]
Dm G7
They'd share in their company
C C/D F F/E
Like a summer light lays on a bed of leaves
Dm G7
and as he'd close his eye to the world
C C/D F F/E
All he could hear was her sweet, pulling melodies
