Intro:
G+G

Verse 1:
G+G                                      A minorAm
i tried my best to treat her right and let her know i loved her when i told her
G+G                                  A minorAm
but my words she put out of sight why do they always want a man much colder
G+G                                   A minorAm
even when i'd hold her tight she'd look at me like all i did was scold her
G+G                                    A minorAm
and all i could conclude from looking in her eyes was that i didn't know her

Chorus:
  C majorC                G+G      D MajorD          A minorAm
so close your eyes darling we don't need them if without them we feel warmer
  C majorC             G+G           D MajorD       A minorAm
and if you open up your heart you'll feel love hate only makes us older
      C majorC
was what i told her

Verse 2:
G+G                                 A minorAm
let the sky and sea and trees ease your anxious mind and all your worries
G+G                                    A minorAm
you'll notice that the natural tides of time make change but never in a hurry
G+G                                 A minorAm
like poetry that's gone astray you'll make it anyway hurt souls go seeking
G+G
but only if your gift is true and made with every ounce of you
A minorAm
that's strong and yours and beautiful and working

Chorus:
  C majorC               G+G          D MajorD       A minorAm
so close your pretty eyes darling you don't need them nothing goes unnoticed
   C majorC                G+G      D MajorD         A minorAm
like heavens hymn horizons reach that silent and eternal place we're after
          C majorC
we can't get there faster
      B minorBm
so take it easy
C majorC           G+G          D MajorD        A minorAm
and be kind baby we're all in this thing together and it's lasting
   C majorC             G+G          D MajorD        A minorAm
and i'll be there for you even when you're not for me just like the river
       C majorC
my love i'll give her

Verse 3:
G+G                                  A minorAm
life makes thieves of all of us it seems that this may be the great disaster
G+G                                    A minorAm
though pain makes greed it's a bust true love never takes what it's not given
G+G                              A minorAm
so even when she was unfair i didn't care cuz i was thinking bigger
A minorAm
i still can miss her
G+G                                    A minorAm
i tried my best to help us both and let her know i loved her when i told her
A minorAm
and now i'm older
       G+G
but i'm not colder

Outro:
A minorAm G+G A minorAm G+G
