Freda Payne, Band Of Gold (1970)
Key: :[D#] (w: Edythe Wayne, Ron Dunbar)

INTRO: [D# *B1]

CHORUS 1:
Now that you've [D#] gone, all that's left is a [A#] band of gold
All that's left of the [G#] dreams I hold, is a band of gold
And the [D#] memories of what [G#] love could be
If [D#] you were still [G#] here with me

VERSE 1:
[D#] You took me from the shelter of a mother I had [A#] never known
The love of any other, [G#] we kissed after taking vows
But [D#] that night on our [G#] honeymoon
[D#] We stayed in [G#] separate rooms

VERSE 2:
[D#] I waited in the darkness of my [A#] lonely room
Filled with sadness, [G#] filled with gloom, hoping soon
That [D#] you'd walk back [G#] through that door
And [D#] love me, liked you [G#] tried before

CHORUS 2:
[D#] Since you've been gone, all that's left is a [A#] band of gold
All that's left of the [G#] dreams I hold, is a band of gold
And the [D#] dream of what [G#] love could be
If [D#] you were still [G#] here with me
