Capo 1
[Intro]
C G D C
[Verse]
G C G
She's taken to walking, alone in the evenin?
D C G
He's taken to sleepin?, all night in his chair
C G
Together they both, had a reason for livin?
D C G
Back when the feelin?, of loving was there
C G
Then she took to dreamin?, when he wasn't lookin?
D C G
And he took to lookin?, for moments alone
C G
Together they drifted, apart from each other
D C G
Together they both knew, the feelin? was gone.
[Chorus]
C G
Gone Like the sparrow, south for the winter
D C G
Gone Like the river, out to the sea
C G
Gone Like the leaves from, the trees when it?s snowing
D C G
Gone Like the love that, they once gave so free.
[Verse]
C G
Till he took to starring, at his lonesome shadow
D C G
And she took to hummin?, the words to some song
C G
They both felt it slippin?, that feeling of giving
D C G
Leaving the feeling, of being alone
C G
Each of them reach, out for the other
D C G
Together they go though, the motions alone
C G
Tryin? to pretend that, nothing else matters
D C G
Making believe that, their love isn't gone.
[Chorus]
C G
Gone Like the sparrow, south for the winter
D C G
Gone Like the river, out to the sea
C G
Gone Like the leaves from, the trees when it?s snowing
D C G
Gone Like the love that, they once gave so free.
[Outro]
D C G
Gone Like the love that, they once gave so free.
