Verse 1:
E 
Fresh white flowers and a new tea light 
E 
Nine cups of water, still water 
     A 
Soon I'll see your face 
A                                      A7 
Don't know why I ever thought you were far away 
A 
I should've known better 

 
Pre-Chorus
    E 
If I set a flame and I call your name 
E                     A 
I'll fix you a plate, we can go to dinner 
A                   A7 
We can share a meal your way 
A                                    A7 
And I'll play you the songs that you used to play 

     E                                                    A 
So I put you on the altar, stay just a little bit longer, woah 
A 
Laid it out for ya', thought I felt you before 
           E         A 
Now you're closer, closer, woah 
     E                                                    A 
So I put you on the altar, stay just a little bit longer, woah 
A 
Laid it out for ya', thought I felt you before 
           E          A 
Now you'rе closer, closer, woah, woah 


Verse 2:
E 
Holdin' on to things you told me 
E 
Holdin' on to drеams you showed me 
A 
Holdin' on to anything from you 
A                E 
That you've been leaving here 
E 
Now I believe I swear 
E                   A 
I can smell your perfume 
A 
Picking up your signal like a phonebooth 
A 
Keeping you alive and I do it 'cause I want to 

Pre-Chorus
     E 
If I set a flame and I call your name 
E                     A 
I'll fix you a plate, we can go to dinner 
A                   A7 
We can share a meal your way 
A                                    A7 
And I'll play you the songs that you used to play 

 
    E                                                    A 
So I put you on the altar, stay just a little bit longer, woah 
A 
Laid it out for ya', thought I felt you before 
           E         A 
Now you're closer, closer, woah (Now you're closer) 
     E                                                    A 
So I put you on the altar, stay just a little bit longer, woah 
A 
Laid it out for ya', thought I felt you before 
               E          A 
But now you're closer, closer, woah, woah (Closer)
