| C | Cmaj7 | |
| I've seen love go | by my door |
| F | |
| Never been this close before |
| C | Cmaj7 | G11 | |
| Never been so | easy or so | slow |
| C | Cmaj7 | |
| Been | shooting in the | dark too long |
| F | |
| When | something's not right it's wrong |
| C | G11 | C | |
| You're gonna make me | lonesome when you | go |
| Chorus sequence: |
| G11 | C | |
| Flowers on the hillside bloomin' | crazy |
| G11 | C | |
| Crickets talkin' back and forth in | rhyme |
| D | |
| Blue river runnin' slow and lazy |
| Fadd9 | |
| I could stay with forever |
| G7add11 | |
| And | never realise the time |
