Intro:  F
                 F                          C
Now that you've gone, all that's left is a band of gold
                           Bb
All  that's  left  of the dreams I hold, is a band of gold
         F/A               Bb               F/A             Bb/C
And the memories, of what love could be, if you were, still here with me

      F                                          C
You took me, from the shelter of a mother I had never known
                        Bb
The love of any other,  we kissed,  after taking vows
     F/A              Bb        F/A           Bb/C
But that night on our honeymoon, we stayed in separate rooms

F                               C
I waited in the darkness of my lonely room
                     Bb
Filled with sadness, filled with gloom, hoping soon
     F/A             Bb                      F/A               Bb/C
That you'd walk back through that door, and love me, liked you tried before

 F                                            C
Since that you've gone, all that's left is a band of gold
                        Bb
All that's left of the dreams I hold, is a band of gold
         F/A           Bb               F/A            Bb/C
And the dream of what love could be, if you were still here with me

   F C Bb F

                    F                               C
Don't you know that I waited in the darkness of my lonely room
                      Bb
Filled with sadness, filled with gloom, hoping soon
     F/A              Bb                     F/A              Bb/C
That you'd walk back through that door, and love me, like you tried before


 F                                            C
Since that you've gone, all that's left is a band of gold
                        Bb
All that's left of the dreams I hold, is a band of gold
         F/A           Bb               F/A            Bb/C         F
And the dream of what love could be, if you were still here with me
