Tuning:E A D G B E
Key:F#
Capo:no capo

[Verse 1]
F#
Four to twenty-one
            B
Started out on the back of the bus
F#
Small town situation
                 B
Through it all together as they grew up
F#
You know how it goes
                 B
Talking late and sharing all their clothes
F#
Stuck together, friends forever
    B
But she’s got a secret no one knows
 
 
[Pre Chorus]
     C#                           G#m
And she’s out late again with her boyfriends
       C#                             B
While she’s back in her dorm thinking how it’s got to end, oh
 
 
[Chorus]
B
Close but never close enough
F#
Life of unrequited love
B
Girl crush on the girl next door
D#m
Never thought it’d become more
         B
Does she want her?
 
Does she wanna be her?
C#                                 D#m
Butterflies each time she sees her smile
 
But words can never form
B                   F#
Will it ever become more?
 
 
[Verse 2]
    F#
She casts her mind back
             B
Sixteen on a night she can’t forget
F#
Smiths playing in a smoky room
    B
The smell of cigarettes on her breath
    F#
She looks into her eyes
             B
Something is saying that this feels right
F#
Lips grow closer, two bodies warmer
    B
But they never spoke about that night
 
[Pre Chorus]
     C#                           G#m
And she’s out late again with her boyfriends
       C#                             B
While she’s back in her dorm thinking how it’s got to end, oh
 
[Chorus]
B
Close but never close enough
F#
Life of unrequited love
B
Girl crush on the girl next door
D#m
Never thought it’d become more
         B
Does she want her?
 
Does she wanna be her?
C#                                 D#m
Butterflies each time she sees her smile
 
But words can never form
B                   F#
Will it ever become more?
 
[Bridge]
             B
And now it’s come time
    D#m
She walks through the door
     B
Just one line
   G#m           D#m
To see if there’s more
     B
And this time
    G#m            D#m
The words start to form
    F#
She wants her, she needs her
          C#
More than ever before
 
[Chorus]
B
Close but never close enough
F#
Life of unrequited love
B
Girl crush on the girl next door
D#m
Never thought it’d become more
         B
Does she want her?
 
Does she wanna be her?
C#                                 D#m
Butterflies each time she sees her smile
 
But the words have finally formed
B                                  F#
Guess it really could be something more
