INTRO[D]

Take a rock, tie a rope,

Throw it down in the sea.

Let it fall to the bottom,

Nobody knows how deep.

Stare real hard through the water,

And you might just perceive,
The distance be[A]tween you and [D]me.
Yeah, the distance be[A]tween you and [D]me.


Take a map of the world,

And measure with your hands,

All of the miles across all of the lands.

Write it down, add it up,

And you might understand,
'Bout the distance be[A]tween you and [D]me.
Yeah, the distance be[A]tween you and [D]me.


I lie a[G]wake and hear you [D]breathing,
Only [G]inches from me in this [D]bed.
Not much [G]space, but its all that we're [D]needin',
To live alone now that [A]our love is [D]dead.


[D]INST[A]RUME[D]NTAL


I lie a[G]wake and hear you [D]breathing,
Only [G]inches from me in this [D]bed.
Not much [G]space, but its all that we're [D]needin',
To live alone now that [A]our love is [D]dead.


Climb the Earth's tallest mountain,

To where it reaches the sky.

Take a gun, fire a bullet,

Straight up out of sight.

Where it stops in the heavens,

Well, that ain't half as high,
As the distance be[A]tween you and [D]me.
As the distance be[A]tween you and [D]me.
