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                                   Ebm 
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.
