Introduction:

             C                      G7                                                 C  
On a park bench one sunny afternoon
                G7                                                                              C  
Sat a young boy and a girl about seventeen
                                                             C7                      F  
As we stood so closely by watched them hold each other's hands
                        G7                                                                                         C  
On their faces love had written we're making plans
                     F                                                                            C  
Then he said to her you're my guiding light
                        D7                                                                         G7  
Then she said to him you make my whole world seem so bright
                     C                                                                              F  
Then we saw their books of Braille and that neither one could see
                G7                                                                    C  
And I thought how close they must be
             G7                                                                         C  
Such tenderness my eyes have never seen
                          G7                                                              C  
Two young lovers both just in their teens
                                                                                        C7  
Though their world gives them no light
                        F  
They see much more than you and me
                          G7                                                            C  
Don't you know how close they must be
                  F                                                                         C  
Then a car stopped just a few steps away
                D7                                                                              G7  
And a voice said Jim and Jeannie it's time to go
                             C                                                            C7  
With their hands still clutched so tight
                     F  
Helping each other to the car
                     G7                                                                    C  
Can you imagine just how close they are
                          G7                                                            F    C  
Don't you know how close they must b--e
