Lyrics

Be (D)wise,

be (Dm6)smart,

be (F#)have,

my (B7)heart.

Don’t up (E)set

your (A7)cart when she’s (D)so close.

Be (D)soft,

be (Dm6)sweet,

but (F#)be

dis (B7)creet.

Don’t go (E)off

your (A7)beat.

She’s too (D)close for

(Am)com (Ab7)fort,

too close, (Gm6)too close for com fort.

(D)Please,

not a (Ab7)gain.

Too close, (Gm6)too close to know just (Bb7)when

to say (A7)when.

Be (D)firm,

be (Dm6)fair,

be (F#)sure,

be (B7)ware.

On your (E)guard,

take (A7)care while there’s (D)such temp

(Am7)ta (Ab7)tion.

One thing (Gm)leads to an oth er, too late (E7)to run for cov er.

She’s much (A7)too close for com fort (Dm)now!

Be (D)wise,

be (Dm6)smart,

be (F#)have,

my (B7)heart.

Don’t up (E)set

your (A7)cart when he’s (D)so close.

Be (D)soft,

be (Dm6)sweet,

but (F#)be

dis (B7)creet.

Don’t go (E)off

your (A7)beat.

He’s too (D)close for

(Am)com (Ab7)fort,

too close, (Gm6)too close for com fort.

(D)Please,

not a (Ab7)gain.

Too close, (Gm6)too close to know just (Bb7)when

to say (A7)when.

Be (D)firm,

be (Dm6)fair,

be (F#)sure,

be (B7)ware.

On your (E)guard,

take (A7)care while there’s (D)such temp

(Am7)ta (Ab7)tion.

One thing (Gm)leads to an oth er, too late (E7)to run for cov er.

He’s much (A7)too close for com fort (Dm)now!

Be (Dm)now!
