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
