[Verse 1]
A Dsus2 A
Sunrise came with a calm across the clouds
A Dsus2 A
Big, blue sky and the sounds of life all around
A A9
Well the bells were ringin' and those birds they were singin'
D D/C# B7
But there was nothing he could say to change her mind
[Chorus]
A
'Cause though he'd once walk beside her
E7 A E7
Now she's just walkin' by
[Verse 2]
A Dsus2 A
Starin' at the ceiling, watching clock hands tick so slow
A Dsus2 A
Glaring at the TV, read the paper, maybe turn on the radio
A
Now he's sittin' all alone,
A9
gettin' high, he's gettin' low
D D/C# B7
He'll have to take a second look on down the line
[Chorus]
A
'Cause though he'd once walk beside her
E7 A E7 A
Now she's just walkin' by
*Single Bass note Walk Up

[Bridge]
Bm E7
They'd share in their company
A A/B D D/C#
Like a summer light lays on a bed of leaves
Bm E7
and as he'd close his eye to the world
A A/B D D/C#
All he could hear was her sweet, pulling melodies
[Harmonica Solo]

[Verse 3]
A Dsus2 A
Sunrise came with a calm across the clouds
A Dsus2 A
Big, blue sky and the sounds of life all around
A A9
Well the bells were ringin' and those birds they kept on singin'
D D/C# B7
Made him smile as his eyes would open wide
[Outro]

'Cause though he once walked beside her

Now he's just walkin' by
