Intro
[Am] [C] [F] [D]
Chorus
[Am] [D]
My eyes adored you, oh I never laid a hand on you
[G]
My eyes adored you.
Like a million miles away from me you could not see how I
[Am]
adored you.
[D] [C] [G]
So close, so close and yet so far.
Verse 1
[G] [Bm] [Dm]
Carried your books from school, playing make believe you're
[C] [F]
married to me... you were fifth grade, I was sixth when we
[D7]
came to be.
[Em] [Bm] [Dm] [G] [C]
Walking home every day, over Barnegat bridge and bay.
[Am] [C] [F]
Till we grew into... me and you... went our separate
[D7]
ways
(Chorus)
Verse 2
[Ab] [Cm] [Ebm]
Headed for city lights, climbed the ladder up to fortune
[Db]
and fame.
[Bbm] [Db] [Gb] [Eb7]
I worked my fingers to the bone, made myself a name.
[Fm] [Cm] [Ebm] [Ab]
Funny, I seem to find, that no matter how the years
[Db]
unwind.
[Bbm] [Db] [Gb]
Still I reminisce about the girl I miss, and the love I
[Eb7]
left behind.
Chorus
[Bbm] [Eb]
My eyes adored you, oh I never laid a hand on you
[Ab]
My eyes adored you.
Like a million miles away from me you could not see how I
[Bbm]
adored you.
[Eb] [Db] [Ab]
So close, so close and yet so far.
