Am
If you see me walking down the streets,

    D          Am  D            Am   D
And I start to cry each time we meet,

        Gm7  Am
Walk on by.

             Gm7    Am
Aah, walk on by and make believe,

     Dm                        Am
That I can't see the tears Now let me grieve,

   Bb                       C
In private 'cos each time I see you.

             F   Bb
I just wanna cry,

Walk on by,  walk on by,  walk on by.
[Verse 2]
Am
I just can't get over losing you,

    D       Am      D         Am      D
And so if I seem so broken in pieces,

        Gm7  Am
Walk on by.

           Gm7     Am
Aah, walk on by and foolish pride,

  Dm                        Am
If I can't see the tears then let me hide,

        Bb                        C
All the tears and the sadness you gave me.

                  F   Bb
When you said goodbye.

        F Bb         F  Bb        Am7
Walk on by,  walk on by,  walk on by.
