Intro
Am 
 
Verse 1
 
She leaned forward in the lamplight 
               Em    F 
In her eyes an amber glow 
        Am 
She was promising the earth 
        Em      G      F 
And yet somehow saying no 
 
Verse 2
   Em        Am       G      F 
We talked of pleasant summer days 
    Em       G       F 
Kew Gardens, Hampton Court 
    Em                 F 
The jewellers where we bought 
    Am                Em 
The ring that held us close together 
 
Chorus
N.C. 
Oh, how she changed with every passing day 
 
Verse 3
Am 
 
In the swirling misty morning 
             Em      F 
As the day begins to break 
       Am 
In the heavy dew her footsteps 
                 G      F 
I am floundering in her wake 
 
Chorus
N.C. 
Oh, how she changed with every passing day

Verse 3
    Em       Am   F 
The shutters of indifference 
     Am        G       F 
Have closed to bar the view 
  Em     Am     F 
A person I once knew 
 
Chorus
N.C. 
Oh, how she changed with every passing day
