                          A                               D 
Ohhh if I cross your path again who knows where who knows when 
        A                             D                  
On some mountain without number on some highway without end 
      A                                                 D 
Don't grasp my hand and say fate has brought you here today 
   A             E              D    A 
Oh fate is only fooling with us friend 

CHORUS: 
          D                  A 
Keep your distance keep your distance 
F#m                 E                D            E 
For when I feel you close to me what can I do but fall 
         D                   A        D 
Keep you distance  keep your distance... 
         A              E              D   A 
Ohh with us it must be all or none at all...

           A                                                 D 
Ohh it's a desperate game we play throw our souls our lives away 
A                                  D 
On wounds that can't be mended and debts that can't be paid 
       A                                             D 
Well I played and I got stung now I'm biting back my tongue 
    A                E                  D         A 
And sweeping out the footprints where I strayed 


CHORUS: 
          D                  A 
Keep your distance keep your distance 
F#m                 E                D            E 
For when I feel you close to me what can I do but fall 
         D                   A        D 
Keep you distance  keep your distance... 
         A              E              D   A 
Ohh with us it must be all or none at all... 
         A              E              D     A 
Ohh with us it must be all or none at all...

Keep your distance............ 
          A       D       A     E   D   A   
Keep your distance............
