  G5                        G5
I loved her because she was there 
      G5                  G5
And I knew all along that it wasn't fair 
     C5
But, I didn't care 

And I got the hell out of there 
           G5
That was a close one 
  G5                G5
I kept my freedom intact 
    G5                    G5
Got rid of the hassle and rid of the flack 
        C5
Yeah, I cut me some slack 

And, I never thought I'd want it back 
           G5
That was a close one 
           C5
That was a close one 

And if I hadn't have run 
                              G5
She might've got away with my heart 

(So, I played it smart/My precious heart) 
           C5
That was a close one 
                                     G5
I kept my cool and never let down my gaurd 
           D5         D5
That was a close one

G5                 G5
 Winter of seventy nine 
G5                    G5
 So cold and lonely I found a good woman 
    C5
She took me inside 

And I swear to God, I really tried 
           G5
That was a close one 
           G5                   G5
Will there ever be a love of my life 
         G5
When I'm out of my prime and out of mind 

In the nick of time 
            C5
And will it feel any nearer as fine 
       G5
As the close one 
           C5
That was a close one 

And if I hadn't have run 
                              G5
She might've got away with my heart 

(So, I played it smart/My precious heart) 
           C5
That was a close one 
                                     G5
I kept my cool and never let down my gaurd 
           D5         D5
That was a close one  
           C5
That was a close one 

I loved her because she was there 
           G5
That was a close one 
           C5
That was a close one 
 
Winter of seventy nine 
           G5
That was a close one 
           C5
That was a close one
