[Verse 1]
A# D#sus2 A#
Sunrise came with a calm across the clouds
A# D#sus2 A#
Big, blue sky and the sounds of life all around
A# A#9
Well the bells were ringin' and those birds they were singin'
D# D#/D C7
But there was nothing he could say to change her mind
[Chorus]
A#
'Cause though he'd once walk beside her
F7 A# F7
Now she's just walkin' by
[Verse 2]
A# D#sus2 A#
Starin' at the ceiling, watching clock hands tick so slow
A# D#sus2 A#
Glaring at the TV, read the paper, maybe turn on the radio
A#
Now he's sittin' all alone,
A#9
gettin' high, he's gettin' low
D# D#/D C7
He'll have to take a second look on down the line
[Chorus]
A#
'Cause though he'd once walk beside her
F7 A# F7 A#
Now she's just walkin' by

They'd share in their company
A# A#/C D# D#/D
Like a summer light lays on a bed of leaves
Cm F7
and as he'd close his eye to the world
A# A#/C D# D#/D
All he could hear was her sweet, pulling melodies
