Verse:

Amaj7          Bm/A
The last time I saw her face
   E                                           Amaj7
Her eyes were bathed in starlight and her hair hung long
                  Bm/A
The last time she spoke to me
   E                                                      Amaj7
Her lips were like the scented flowers inside a rain-drenched forest

Chorus:

D              E             D               A               Bm         Bm/A
But that was so long ago that I can scarcely feel the way I felt before
Esus4   E7       A
And if time could heal the wounds
                D                         E7sus4           E7
I would tear the threads away that I might bleed some more


Verse:

Amaj7          Bm/A
The last time I walked with her
E7
Her laughter was the steeple bells
D                    E
That ring to greet the morning sun
D                     E
A voice that called to everyone
D                     E
To love the ground she walked upon
E7                Amaj7
Those were good days


Amaj7  Bm/A  E/A  A

Verse:

Amaj7          Bm/A
The last time I held her hand
E                                        Amaj7
Her touch was autumn, spring and summer, and winter too
               Bm/A
The last time I let go of her
E7
She walked a way into the night
D                  E                 D               A
I lost her in the misty streets, a thousand months, a thousand years
Esus4   E7       A
When other lips will kiss her eyes
     D                E7sus4           E7
A million miles beyond the moon, that's where she is


Amaj7  Bm/A  E/A  A

Chorus:

D              E             D               A               Bm         Bm/A
But that was so long ago that I can scarcely feel the way I felt before
Esus4   E7       A
And if time could heal the wounds
                D                         E7sus4           E7
I would tear the threads away that I might bleed some more


Verse:
Amaj7          Bm/A
The last time I saw her face
E                                        Amaj7
Her eyes were bathed in starlight and she walked alone
               Bm/A
The last time she kissed my cheek
E7
Her lips were like the wilted leaves
D              E
Upon the autumn covered hills
D               A
Resting on the frozen ground
Bm         Bm/A
The seeds of love lie cold and still
Esus4   E7       A
Beneath a battered marking stone
 D
It lies forgotten

Amaj7  Bm/A
