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

INTRO: [Eb *B1]

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

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

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

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

INSTRUMENTAL: [Eb] [Bb] [Ab] [Eb]
