This Close To You
Tuning:E A D G B E
Key:G
Capo:no capo
[Intro]
G C G C
[Verse 1]
G
I'll have to be
C D
As brave as you
Em G
With no star to guide us
C G
Blazing above;
And no moonshiner's river
C D
To carry us through
Em G
And no way to speak
C G
When there aren't words enough
[Chorus]
D
Fair enough
C G D
You asked me for nothing
Fair enough
C D
All you told me was true
G
I called down the flood
C G
And I'm falling forever
But I was this close to you
D G
This close to you
[Verse 2]
It rained for a week
C D
And I kept my head down
Em G
Trying to think what
C G
You reminded me of:
A fire that had ravaged
C D
An Ohio town
Em G
And spooked me at noon
C G
With my headlights still on
[Chorus]
D
Fair enough
C G
You asked me for nothing
D
Fair enough
C D
All you told me was true
G
I called down the flood
C G
And I'm falling forever
But I was this close to you
D G C
This close to you

[Bridge]
Em G
Well sometime at night
Am C
I pretended to be sleeping
Em G Am
Just to hear what it is
C
That you say
Em G
When you talk to yourself
Am C
And the darkness is keeping
Em G C
The hateful morning
D
A goodnight away
[Verse 3]
G
If I was much younger
C D
I might just forget it
Em G
If love was the habit of
C G
Some borrowed room;
But it's all that I have
C D
And I'm doomed to regret it
Em G
If I can't forgive
C G
Myself or you soon
[Chorus]
D
Fair enough
C G
You asked me for nothing
D
Fair enough
C D
All you told me was true
G
I called down the flood
C G
And I'm falling forever
But I was this close to you
D G
This close to you
