NEAR & DEAR - FAGIN'S BOYZ
ZEKE BERKOWITZ
(CAPO 5TH FRET)
INTRO
D
I guess I'm just a sinner,
Cadd9
In a world that has counted my strikes,
D
And as my blood becomes thinner,
Cadd9
The nip of the pain still bites,
VERSE 1
D Cadd9
Could you be a martyr,
G Cadd9
Or could you be my saint,
D Cadd9
As your wings start to flutter,
G D
You make my heart feel faint,
CHORUS
G Cadd9
All the crosses I have to bare,
D A
Are nothing held in compare,
G Cadd9
And the rushing waters I sail,
D A
Are just wave pools in despair,
G Cadd9 D A
Because life without you, is just not fair,
G Cadd9 D A
Because life with out you, is just not fair,

VERSE 2
D Cadd9
Once in my lifetime,
G Cadd9
I had a friend like you,
D Cadd9
And if you like what I'm rhyming,
G Cadd9
There's only one thing left to do,
D Cadd9
The strumming of my heart strings,
G Cadd9
Has tuned you near and dear,
D Cadd9
And though the distance is troubling,
G D
The answer's very clear,
CHORUS
G Cadd9
All the crosses I have to bare,
D A
Are nothing held in compare,
G Cadd9
And the rushing waters I sail,
D A
Are just wave pools in despair,
G Cadd9 D A
Because life without you, is just not fair,
G Cadd9 D A
Because life with out you, is just not fair,
BRIDGE
G Cadd9 D Cadd9 A x4
(With harmonica solo)
CHORUS
G Cadd9 D A
Because life with out you, is just not fair x4
(Last time strum each chord once)
