Words and Music by James Taylor

C69
Listen to me and I'll sing you a song 
                                                       F/G
and the time will go by till you never know where it's gone
Bbmaj7              F/Bb             E/A
Talk to me and I'll tell you my life story
Dmaj7                 F/G                   G/C
Walk with me and I'll tell you my dreams of glory
Eb
There we are
Gm7      F/Bb   Csus4 C  Gm7      F/Bb    G/C
Walking hand in hand,    somewhere on the sand
       Fmaj7                   Em7         A7-9    F/Bb   F#/B
at the end of the land and the edge of the shining sea

C69
Drifting through time and space on the face of 
                                      F/G
a little blue ball falling around the sun
Bbmaj7   F/Bb             E/A                             Dmaj7
One in a million billion twinkling lights shining out for no one
F/G          G/C
      in the middle of the night
Eb
Here we are
Gm7      F/Bb   Csus4 C  Gm7      F/Bb    G/C
sparks in the darkness, speaking of our love
Fmaj7          Em7   A7-9    F/Bb  -- F#/B G/C G#/C#
burning down forever and forever

A/D                  G/A              Dmaj7                 F/G
Oh I don't know if I told you but you hold my heart in your hand
Cmaj7        G/C                  F/G
       And I found out something about you; 
             Bbmaj7      F/Bb     E/A F/Bb F#/B
baby, without you, I'm a lonely man

C69
So though I never say that I love you, 
                                          F/G
I love you, darling I do, Carly I do love you
    Bbmaj7           F/Bb           E/A 
And though we are as nothing to the stars that shine above
           Dmaj7     F/G        G/C
You are my universe; you are my love
Eb
Here we are
     Gm7    F/Bb Csus4 C          Gm7     F/Bb  G/C
like children forever,     taking care of one another
          Fmaj7             Em7    A7-9   F/Bb
While the world goes on without us all around us
F/Bb F#/B G/C G#/C# A/D Bb/Eb B/E C/F

James Taylor Belfast to Boston - God's Rifle
James Taylor - Belfast to Boston - God's Rifle There are rifles buried in the countryside by the rising of the moon May they lie there long forgotten till they rust away into the ground Who will bend this ancient hatred, will the killing to an end Who will swallow long injustice, take the devil for a country man Who will say "this far no further, oh lord, if I die today" Send no weapons no more money. Send no vengeance across the seas Just the blessing of forgiveness for my new countryman ...

Close your Eyes (James Taylor)
Ok, Another request for Aussiechezmois. A rather nice James Taylor song in fact. To everyone out there that has requested a song from us (there's a few), like I said, we work slow so please be patient. Oh and don't be afraid to remind me of a request cause I don't have any kind of filing system for these things....so I could misplace or forget some. But I digress, bloody deceptively tricky song this one. Enjoy!
