------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So Close - Daryl Hall & John Oates from the album "Change of Season"(1990) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Ryan "Sambo" Mascarenhas This a wonderful Hall & Oates track co-written & co-produced by Jon Bon Jovi. Though the is keyboard based, it can be played well on an acoustic. I have tabbed this song based the origial track and not the unplugged version which appears on the same album. The can be barred or played normally too. So enjoy!! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- EXTRA NOTES ? = x x 4 2 2 x

     C                               ?
They met on the dance floor, in the old high school gym

Bb                         F
  He fell like a rock, She kinda liked him

        Dm                               G               Am
And his heart beat like thunder, as they moved cross the floor

             F         G                 Bb
But when the music was over, she slipped out of his arms
(Riff) And out the door Verse 2:
       C                         ?
Yeah a man loves a woman, but he can't understand

          Bb                          F
Why she's sad when she stares, at the ring on her hand

         Dm                           G            Am
Then she sits in some club, where the long shadows fall

        F           C                G
Drops a coin in the jukebox, not the phone on the wall
Chorus:
G  Am         F       G
So close, Yet so far away

G  Am         F       G
So close, Yet so far away

     F           C            G           Am
We believe in tomorrow, maybe more than today

      F            G
We're so close, so close
(Riff) Yet so far away Verse 2:
C                         ?
Some people think, if you really believe

Bb                         F
  That's all you need, to solve all the mysteries

     Dm                       G             Am
Well I know someone, who just heads for the sun

           F                      G
She says, "I don't wanna be wise, I just wanna stay young"
Chorus:
G  Am         F       G
So close, Yet so far away

G  Am         F       G
So close, Yet so far away

     F           C                G          Am
We believe in tomorrow, but we're stuck in today

           F            G
Baby we're so close, so close
(Riff) So far away Verse 3:
          F
There's a restless look in your eye tonight

          C
There's a secret hurt in my heart

        F
And the dream that pulls us together girl

     Bb
Is a dream

             F
That's gonna tear us, tear us apart
Verse 4:
          G
There's a restless look in your eye tonight

        D
Are you looking for some / way / out / of / here

         G
We gotta fight, to keep it together girl

        Em     F#m      G
For the dream      that keeps us
Chorus:
A  Bm         G       A
So close, Yet so far away

A  Bm         G       A
So close, Yet so far away

    G                      D               A           Bm
Now who would have thought girl, that we'd end up this way

       G            A
Livin' so close, so close
So far away "The rest of it is A - Bm - G - A and fades till the end" ===============================================================================
