The Strawbs

Oh How She Changed

The Strawbs


Tom: Am

Am

[Verse 1]

She leaned forward in the lamplight
               Em    F
In her eyes an amber glow
        Am
She was promising the earth
        Em      G      F
And yet somehow saying no


[Verse 2]
   Em        Am       G      F
We talked of pleasant summer days
    Em       G       F
Kew Gardens, Hampton Court
    Em                 F
The jewellers where we bought
    Am                Em
The ring that held us close together


[Chorus]
N.C.
Oh, how she changed with every passing day


[Verse 3]
Am

In the swirling misty morning
             Em      F
As the day begins to break
       Am
In the heavy dew her footsteps
                 G      F
I am floundering in her wake


[Chorus]
N.C.
Oh, how she changed with every passing day


[Instrumental]
Am   Am7   Am   Am7   Am   Am7   Am   Am7   Am


[Verse 3]
    Em       Am   F
The shutters of indifference
     Am        G       F
Have closed to bar the view
  Em     Am     F
A person I once knew


[Chorus]
N.C.
Oh, how she changed with every passing day
