[Verse 1]
B Esus2 B
Sunrise came with a calm across the clouds
B Esus2 B
Big, blue sky and the sounds of life all around
B B9
Well the bells were ringin' and those birds they were singin'
E E/D# C#7
But there was nothing he could say to change her mind
[Chorus]
B
'Cause though he'd once walk beside her
F#7 B F#7
Now she's just walkin' by
[Verse 2]
B Esus2 B
Starin' at the ceiling, watching clock hands tick so slow
B Esus2 B
Glaring at the TV, read the paper, maybe turn on the radio
B
Now he's sittin' all alone,
B9
gettin' high, he's gettin' low
E E/D# C#7
He'll have to take a second look on down the line
[Chorus]
B
'Cause though he'd once walk beside her

Now she's just walkin' by

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