(Intro: F  C  F  C)

     
           F            C  F        C
           They pass me by in quiet talk 

           F       C    F           G     G/F  G/E  G/D  
           Hand in hand on a summer walk 


           C                            F     F/E  Dm  F/C
           They don't think they're overheard  

           Bb                     C
           But I hear their every word 

           F            F7              Bb
           She wants to know if he will love her 

            Bb/A           Gm
           'til the day he dies 

           F           F7         Bb                
           But how can he see the future 

           Bb/A              Gm Bb/F  C/E   C/D  C
           when he's looking in her   eyes? 

           F     C           F              C   
           I was born in the spring of this year 

           F             C           F
           Warmed by the sun and the wind 

                             G
           that brought me here 


           C                        F        F/E  Dm  F/C 
           There's no expression on my face 

           Bb                     C    
           And no footsteps leave my trace 


           F            F7          Bb   Bb/A  Gm  
           They pass me by in quiet talk 

           F       F7        Bb     Bb/A     Gm  Bb/F          
           Hand in hand on a summer walk...
