By And By chords

[E]listen close, as close as [A]I am to yo[E]u
[E]like the bell of l[A]iberty, Ill ri[H7]ng a sound thats tru[E]e
[E]and days go by and se[A]asons t[E]oo
[E]in time our love may d[A]igress with the w[H7]ords we can re[E]new

[C#m]Ill te[H7]ll you that I[E]
[C#m]I lo[H7]ve you by and b[E]y
[C#m]I dont kn[H7]ow if Id survi[E]ve
[C#m]without[H7] a friend like you in my l[E]ife

and I know words can be the worst to purvey
how it is I feel for you its hard for me to say
but if we keep it simple I think its better that way
tangled words tend to lead my messages astray

Ill tell you that I
I love you by and by
I dont know if Id survive
without a friend like you in my life

this web we weave holds us hand in hand
and if we loosen our grips we may weaken these strands
so lets reinforce our love and let it echo through the land
and if we dont we may find ourselves washed up with the sand

Ill tell you that I
I love you by and by
I dont know if Id survive
without a friend like you in my life

Ill tell you that I
I love you by and by
I dont know if Id survive
without a friend like you in my life
