This is an arrengement for classic, electric or acoustic guitar of the song Close To You recorded by The Carpenters in 1970. It's a modern and jazzy arrengement, the chord notation doesn't match with the harmonization of the arrangement, it is the original chord harmony of the composition, this is to be able to analyze it and learn which were the substitutions chosen. The armonization technique was free and I hope that inspire and encourage you to do your own version.
