^{Key: :[F#] (w: Edythe Wayne, Ron Dunbar)}

INTRO: [F# *B1]

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

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

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

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

INSTRUMENTAL: [F#] [C#] [B] [F#]
