Never Too Close Gordon Lightfoot
CAPO: 2nd Fret
[INTRO:] G C G Em D G
[VERSE 1:]
I remember when best [C]friends were jealous lo[G]vers
Lying warm a[C]sleep beneath the [D]covers[G]
Dreaming of be[C]longing to each [G]other
[CBORUS:]
And so we [C]tried, never too [G]close
Never too [D]near, dying in [G]time
And so we [C]cried, but that is al[G]right
We meant no one [D]no harm
[VERSE 2:]
I re[G]member when best [C]friends were not mis[G]taken
Long before that [C]freedom was for[D]saken[G]
Learning about all the good [C]things in the world worth be[G]lieving
[CBORUS:]
And so we [C]tried, never too [G]close
Never too [D]near, dying in [G]time
And so we [C]cried, but that is al[G]right
We meant no one [D]no harm
[INSTRUMENTAL:] G C G Em D G
[VERSE 3:]
I remember when jealous [C]lovers would stick to[G]gether
When the days were [C]warm and the nights more [D]tender[G]
When the bonds of [C]truth were not made to [G]measure
[CBORUS:]
And so we [C]tried, never too [G]close
Never too [D]near, dying in [G]time
And so we [C]cried, but that is al[G]right
We meant no one [D]no harm
[CBORUS:]
[C]Try, try as you [G]will
Following [D]dreams never ful[G]filled
And so we [C]cried, but that is al[G]right
We meant no one [D]no harm
[OUTRO:] G C G Em D G
