Intro
A   E   A    E

AWell I've tasted love so sweet
APlayed around but not for keeps
F♯mI never been knocked off my feet
F♯mTill you came along
C♯mIn the room surrounding me
DAre angels I cannot see
BmI know they come to carry me to
EWhere I belong

Closer to F♯myou, closer to C♯myou
DI'm singing like a sailor
strutting up your avenue       F♯m
Like a clowBmn in a costume shop
Wearing C♯mnothing but my birthday suit
Getting closer to F♯myou    F♯m

AAll the knocks upon your door
AFootsteps fallen on your floor
F♯mAll the shipwrecks on your shore
F♯mMean nothing to me
C♯mAll the crooks on Capitol Hill
DCriminals on the dollar bills
BmAll the money on Wall Street still
ECouldn't keep me from getting

Closer to F♯myou. Closer to C♯myou
DLike a priest on a pulpit
F♯mpreaching to an empty room
Like a Bmdrunk in a dive bar
In the early C♯mafternoon
Closer to F♯myou.   F♯m

DmPoets could not pronounce your name
DmGamblers couldn't play the game
AmMatchstick statues set to flame
AmCouldn't hold a candle to you
GmSwindlers on the Sunset strip
GmHypnotists and hypocrites
EVentriloquists and Pickpockets
EWish that they could get

Solo

AWell I've tasted love so sweet
APlayed around but not for keeps
F♯mI never been knocked off my feet
F♯mTill you came along
C♯mI sit through the trickery
DThe jealousy and vanity
BmThe potency of your prophesy
EBecause I long to be

Closer to F♯myou. Closer to C♯myou
DLike a hound dog in a junkyard honey
F♯mI'm howling at the moon
BmLike a Pirate in a pawnshop
C♯mwith a pocket full of jewels
Closer to F♯myou (F♯mx3)

I'll get through
Oh baby I'll get through
Closer to you
