       C                G                   Am
It was Friday night and both of us were lonely
C    D                 D7            G
  We seemed to meet as lonely people do
   C              G                 Am7     C
To fill the empty space till Monday morning
F                  Em                Dm   G
  I never meant to fall in love with you

    Am
You came right out and told me
           D
About your wife back home in Houston
         G
You were just in town on business
          C
And never tried to lead me on

        F
But the time had seemed just fine
         C                  Am
I simply love you for the moment
    F               Em
But heaven help me, time ran out
    Dm               G
And now the moment's gone


Chorus:
C                                 E7
Silver wings and golden rings are taking you today
        Am                               G         C
I'll be dying on the ground while you are  flying away
F                                 C              Am
Silver wings and golden rings are shining on and on
          Dm             G             C
While the only love I've ever known is gone

Verse 2:
    C                G                Am
You made me feel like I was something special
C     D                D7       G
  The way no other man had ever done
  C                     G               Am
I knew last night would have to last forever
C        F                 Em               Dm
  'Cause there's no way of holding back the sun

G      Am
   And now I guess it's time for me
   D
To drive you to the plane
   G
To hold back all my tears
    C
And tell you it's been nice

   F
If you come back to town again
    C                    Am
You know I'd love to see you
  F              Em
Remember I'm not strong enough
   Dm             G
To let you go off twice


Chorus:
C                                 E7
Silver wings and golden rings are taking you today
        Am                               G         C
I'll be dying on the ground while you are  flying away
F                                 C              Am
Silver wings and golden rings are shining on and on
          Dm             G             C
While the only love I've ever known is gone

While the only love I've ever known is gone
