Key: :[Ab] (w: Edythe Wayne, Ron Dunbar)

INTRO: [Ab *B1]

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

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

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

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