CLOSE BY (B. Monroe - R. van Winkle)
performed by Patty  Loveless
from Big Mon The Songs of Bill Monroe (2000 Ricky Skaggs  Records)

 

Key of Bb, capo 3

 

        G        D           G
You've gone  so far away my darling
     C
Each time I think of you  I  cry
                               G
I'll press your picture to my  bosom
G          D                       G
Then I'll feel that you're close by

 


MANDOLIN SOLO

 


The years have passed you've not returned dear
Now they say that you  have died
But your soul will live forever
Now I know you'll be close  by

 


DOBRO SOLO

 


I saw you last while you were leaving
The tears from you I tried to  hide
You took me in your arms and said dear
Your memory I keep close  by

 


FIDDLE SOLO

 


They've buried you in a lonely graveyard
And a spot they've left  beside
Now we'll sleep 'til Jesus calls us
So that we can be close by
