Closer

Intro  B 



B                 E 
Nothing stays the same 
B                       E 
I feel love a different way 
B                    E 
So I contemplate the change 
B                           E 
I got my space but what'd I pay for you? 



        B 
Cause I love you, or I want to, but I don't know how 
          E 
Because I need to really feel you, but we're running around 
          B 
Because I love you, or I want to, is it easy now? 
         E 
You only hit me in the evening when I'm all stressed out 



           B 
I need you closer 
             E 
Or I need it over 
                B 
Either need you closer 
             E 
Or I need it over

B                           E 
There's nothing left to let go 
B                     E 
It's the darkest afterglow 
B                E 
Maybe in another life 
B                    E 
We can try to get us right, no, no, no 


 
        B 
Cause I love you, or I want to, but I don't know how 
          E 
Because I need to really feel you, but we're running around 
          B 
Because I love you, or I want to, is it easy now? 
         E 
You only hit me in the evening when I'm all stressed out 



           B 
I need you closer 
             E 
Or I need it over 
                B 
Either need you closer 
             E 
Or I need it over 



                 G#m     F#    E 
Cause you're the holiday I celebrate too late 
           G#m         F#           E 
You're the eyes I gave up trying to captivate 
           G#m         F#              E 
You're the song that I loved, but then overplayed 
            G#m    F#        E 
And I'm the b-side throwaway 
           G#m           F#    E 
I hope you never rain on my charade 
           G#m         F#      E 
The lonely one I let myself create 
         G#m       F#       E 
I got my space but what'd I pay? 
                              G#m        F#m 
I've been fucked so much that I no longer wait 
      E 
I sabotage and break my own heart just in case 



          G#m                             F# 
So yeah I loved you, or I tried to, but I don't know how 
        E 
Used to need you, and feel you, but we ran it all down 
        G#m                                 F# 
Cause I loved you, or I tried to, can we be easy now? 
           E 
Or will it kill me, on the evening, that I let you down? 



           G#m 
I need you closer 
             E 
Or I need it over 
                G#m 
Either need you closer 
             E 
Or I need it over
