The Closet

C                   G 
It wasnt what you said 
    Am          F       C 
So much as how you said it 
                  G 
And those little subtleties 
Am           F    C 
Led me to suspect it 
                    G 
Im gonna call you out right now 
        Am            F 
Cause I never got to test it 

      Am             C 
Ill call it what it is 
                              G 
Since youre still afraid to name it 
    Am 
No prayers will tame it 
            F 
Youre not locked in 
         Am              F 
Youre trapped with the door open 
      Am              C 
Ill tell you what I see 
                  G 
A woman quietly drawn to me 
     Am 
But now shes frozen 
        F 
And maybe you know this 
    Am          C 
But I said Id call it what it is 
                 G 
Deep in suppression 
              Am 
I know you question 
  C         G 
I terrified you 
              Am 
And then you lost it 
           C           G 
Im here when youre ready 
             F            Am 
But youre stuck in the closet 

     C            G 
And when you ran away 
    Am                F C 
It just confirmed my fears 
          G                Am 
That whatever you felt for me, 
            F                C 
You hadn't felt in all your years 
       G        Am                     F 
It's okay, you just aren't out to yourself, babe 

      Am             C 
Ill call it what it is 
                              G 
Since youre still afraid to name it 
    Am 
No prayers will tame it 
            F 
Youre not locked in 
         Am              F
