Amaj7 Bm/A E/A  A


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
