Though I (C)nev er laid a hand on you, my eyes a (G)dored you.

Like a (G#dim)mil lion miles a way from me you could n’t see how I a (Am)dored you.

So (C)close,

so close and yet so (C)far.

(G)Car ried your books from (Bm7)school,

(Am7)You were fifth grade, I was sixth, (F)when we came to (D)be.

(Em)Walk ing home ev ’ry (Bm7)day

o ver (Cmaj7)Bar ne gat the Bridge and Bay,

till we (Am7)grew in to ’bout the me and you and who (F)went our (Am)sep ’rate (Dsus)ways.

My eyes a (Am)dored you.

Though I (C)nev er laid a hand on you, my eyes a (G)dored you.

Like a (G#dim)mil lion miles a way from me you could n’t see how I a (Am)dored you.

So (C)close,
