C
Up along the hallway

Down along the stairs

I can see the pictures

We've made down through the years

And it makes me blue darling

Thinking of the past

And I'm truly sorry
G7                 C
I couldn't make it last

Walk the way the wind blows

Cry the tears I've cried

Hoping for you darling

To be here by my side

I've gotta do some thinking

Walk the way the wind blows

Wipe away the tears

I remember darling
                    F
When you first came to me

All the air was sweet then
                     C
And all our time was free

But like the leaves that wither
F
Our hearts fell away

I think I'll just go out alone
                  C
And walk my blues away
