Instead of doing C and G for when she sings "close to you," I would recommend just doing G for that phrase. Other than that, it's the easiest one I've found! (and on key)

About this song: Arms

The song that brought the Carpenters to the limelight. Typical of their style with Karen's clear voice floating above subdued backup.
