Standard (EADGBE)

 I listen for your footsteps coming up the drive

Listen for your footsteps but they don't arrive

Waiting for your knock dear on my own front door

 I don't hear it, does it mean you don't love me anymore?

 I hear the clock a-ticking on the mantel shelf

See the hands a-moving but I'm by myself

 I wonder where you are tonight why I'm by myself

 I don't see you, does it mean you don't love me anymore?

Don't pass me by don't make me cry don't make me blue

 'Cause you know darlin I love only you

 You never know it hurt me so. I'd hate to see you go

 Don't pass me by. Don't make me cry

Sorry that I doubted you I was so unfair

You were in a car crash and you lost your hair

 (You) said that you wouldn't be late about an hour or two

 Said "that's alright, I'm waiting here just waiting to hear from you!"

Don't pass me by don't make me cry don't make me blue

 'Cause you know darlin I love only you

 You never know it hurt me so. I'd hate to see you go

 Don't pass me by. Don't make me cry

Don't pass me by don't make me cry don't make me blue

 'Cause you know darling I love only you

 You never know it hurt me so. I'd hate to see you go..........

 Don't pass me by. Don't make me cry...........
