               F#
She loved him most when his eyes were gray

             F#
The palest shade of a winter day

                 F#
They filled her with a raging fire

             C#      F#
And a bittersweet desire



                F#
She shined for him like candlelight

              F#
That softly beckons in the night

            F#
But he said no right to her face

                        C#      F#
Then simply turned and walked away



            C#                  F#
All heaven watched from way on high

           B           F#
True love given and denied

                C#                 F#  B
And while her heart was broke and bleeding

            F#           C#       F#
Sorrowful angels wept into their wings




              F#
She wore him like a lock and chain

          F#
Only in dreams she spoke his name

            F#
By day it slept upon her tongue

                   C#     F#
The taste of unrequited love



         F#
Now her hair is long and gray

             F#
The palest shade of a winter day

            F#
She never took a ring of gold

                      C#      F#
She swears she never loved a soul




             C#                  F#
All heaven watched from way on high

           B           F#
True love given and denied

                C#                 F#  B
And while her heart was broke and bleeding

            F#           C#       F#
Sorrowful angels wept into their wings

    B      F#            C#       F#
Sorrowful angels wept into their wings

               F#
She loved him most when his eyes were gray
