[Intro]
A A/Eb Aadd11 A

[Verse]
A                    A/Eb               Aadd11     A
Summer was gone and the heat died down
A                    A/Eb            Aadd11        A
And Autumn reached for her golden crown
D             A             D              A
I looked behind as I heard a sigh
A                         A/Eb Aadd11 A
But this was the time of no reply

[Verse]
A                      A/Eb               Aadd11       A
The sun went down and the crowd went home
A               A/Eb              Aadd11   A
I was left by the roadside all alone
D                 A             D              A
I turned to speak as they went by
A                         A/Eb Aadd11 A
But this was the time of no reply

[Chorus]
A5                 G5
The time of no reply
A5                       G5
Is calling me to stay
A5                         G5
There is no hello and no goodbye
F5                           E
To leave there is no way

[Verse]
A                         A/Eb        Aadd11    A
The trees on the hill had nothing to say
A                                    A/Eb     Aadd11      A
They would keep their dreams till another day
D            A                D                                 A
So they stood and thought and wondered why
A                         A/Eb Aadd11 A
For this was the time of no reply

[Verse]
A               A/Eb       Aadd11   A
Time goes by from year to year
A                  A/Eb         Aadd11           A
And no one asks why I am standing here
D                     A                 D                A
But I have my answer as I look to the sky
A                         A/Eb Aadd11 A
But this was the time of no reply

[Chorus]
A5                 G5
The time of no reply
A5                       G5
Is calling me to stay
A5                         G5
There is no hello and no goodbye
F5                           E
To leave there is no way
