Intro
F Dm F G G7
F Amanda was a small town blonde haired beauty Am She had Heaven in her eyes and could light up a room F F When she walked into view, she was the prettiest girl in my school
And I knew she'd never give me the time of day
Am No girls like her ever looked twice my way F She was out of my league F G G7 Oh, but that was alright with me F Cause I loved her from a distance F Like an angel watching from afar F I never had the nerve to mention F The fire burning in my heart G F I knew a boy like me never woulda stood a chance Dm G So I did the best I could F Csus F And I loved her from a distance
The Homecoming dance of our senior year
Am I finally got my courage up enough to overcome my fears F I would have asked her to dance F But her boyfriend never gave me a chance
Every step of every song they swung the night away
Am And I wish I could have wrapped my arms around her waist F And told her how I cared F G G7 Instead I only stood there and stared F Cause I loved her from a distance F Like an angel watching from afar F I never had the nerve to mention F The fire burning in my heart G F I knew a boy like me never woulda stood a chance Dm G So I did the best I could F Csus F And I loved her from a distance
F Dm F G G7
F The other night I saw her, first time in years Am My heart skipped a beat when she came walking near F In those faded blue jeans F She's still the prettiest girl I've seen
And much to my surprise she said hello
Am And that she loved listening to me singing on the radio F I said that's a funny funny thing F G G7 Cause your in every song I sing F Yes I've been loving you from a distance F Csus F Since you were only seventeen F But I never had the nerve to mention F The feelings flowing inside me G F I knew a boy like me never woulda stood a chance Dm G G7 So I poured my heart into the music that I made F And I kept loving you from a distance G F Oh and now we have a story book romance Dm G G7 And I know one thing's for sure F This love can go the distance
