Chord/Tab song: How Close They Must Be

On a park bench [C]one sunny [G7]afternoon [C]

Sat a [G7]young boy and a girl about seven[C]teen

As we stood so closely [C7]by watched [F]them hold each other's hands

On their [G7]faces love had written we're making [C]plans

Then he [F]said to her you're my guiding [C]light

Then she [D7]said to him you make my whole [G7]world seem so bright

Then we [C]saw their books of Braille and [F]that neither one could see

And I [G7]thought how close they must [C]be

Such [G7]tenderness my eyes have never [C]seen

Two young [G7]lovers both just in their [C]teens

Though their world gives them no [C7]light

They see [F]much more than you and me

Don't you [G7]know how close they must [C]be

Then a [F]car stopped just a few steps [C]away

And a [D7]voice said Jim and Jeannie it's [G7]time to go

With their [C]hands still clutched so [C7]tight

Helping [F]each other to the car

Can you [G7]imagine just how close they [C]are

Don't you [G7]know how close they must [F]b--[C]e
