OPTIONAL INTRO   C Em7 Am Em7 , C

C   Em7     Am     Em7       C        Em7 Am Em7
 So close,  yet so far  from paradise
C       Am                   C
 I hold you, in my arms, and paradise
  Em              Am
Is mine, then you slip away
       Fmaj7     G7        C       Em
Like a child, at play, and here am I
Em   Fmaj7   G7              C        Em7 Am Em7
 So  close,  yet so far from paradise

C     Em7  Am          Am7       C        Em7 Am Em7
 When you, are close to me, it's paradise
C   Em7    Am    Am7   C
 We kiss,  oh my love, paradise
Em            Am7             C         Am
Is mine, then suddenly you're gone from me
                Fmaj7   G        C       Em
Like a floating star, I see, and here am I
Em   Fmaj7  G7              C         Em C Fmaj7
 So  close, yet so far from paradise

Fmaj7                   G
 I   reach out for you,  but each time I do
Am                 C     Fmaj7
 I always find you gone
Fmaj7                    Am        C
 I   know  love is new,  I'll take care of you
G7                  Am     G7    C
In my arms is where you be-long

C      Am           Em           C         Em7 Am Em7
 Just, a step away, are we, from paradise
C        Em7        Am       C            Em
 Take my hand, come away, to paradise, my love
           Am
I want you close to me
            C         G7       C      Em Fmaj7
