Closer I Get

	  		

 

Verse 1:
 
G              D                   Em 
People say it just doesn't matter but 
             C              G 
The closer I get I'm giving in 
          D 
I can't escape 
             Em   C 
Damn what a shame 
G             D                Em 
Listen to me just for a minute 
          C                 G 
I can be quick, no gimmick 
         D                       Em C 
I got a plan, you should live it 


Pre-chorus: 

              G             D 
The closer I get, I can't relate 
                 Em              C 
This ain't our place, let us go far, far away 
G             D               Em 
Find a new home, rules of our own 
            C 
You and me both are the same 
  G         D               Em           C 
Try to be strong, baby come on now, come on 
G              D 
Lie after lie, so many times 
Em                                 C 
When I'm trying to find a peace of mind 

 
          G    D   Em           C 
I've got love for you when the time gets rough 
G              D             Em               C 
When all the stress adds up and when you say I've had enough(2x) 

 


Verse 2:
 
G                         D 
Whatever happened to the good times 
Em                      C 
We should create for ourselves not rely on 
G                    D 
They'll never get a hold of me 
Em                  C       G 
Simple you see, simplicity yeah 
             D            Em 
The closer I get I can't relate 
          C 
I can't escape 
         G  
Oh, the pain 
          D 
How they lie all the time 
Em                                  C 
when I'm trying to find a peace of mind 


Bridge:
 
C               G   D  Em    
Yes I found my own way out 
           C       G    C 
I'm going all the way... 
                 G    D   Em 
Until the people all find out 
              C       G    D 
They're going all the way down...
