CLOSE TO YOU
Kate Wolf

E                 A      B                   E
I LIKE THE WAY YOU SMILE; IT REMINDS ME OF A HAPPY CHILD
A               E                B7
IT MAKES ME FEEL A LITTLE LESS ALONE
E                       A         B                 E
I MISS YOU WHEN YOU'RE GONE; THE HOURS THEY STRETCH ON AND ON
      A               E   B7      E
LIKE WATER DRIPPING SLOWLY ON A STONE.
C#m               C#m G#m                  G#m
YOU'RE SUCH A MYSTERY;  THE WAY YOU LOOK AT ME
           A                      E                 B7
WITH THAT LIGHT THAT SHINES FROM SOME PLACE I CAN'T GO.
        D               A  B7         E
DID IT TAKE YOU BY SURPRISE WHEN YOU REALIZED
          A                      E     B7     E
THAT YOU LOVE ME, THOUGH YOU'VE NEVER TOLD ME SO.

E                   A B                   E
YOU KNOW I WANT TO SAY SO MANY THINGS TO YOU TODAY
A                          E               B7        
BUT YOU'VE GOT ME FEELING LIKE I'M FLYING BLIND.
E                    A  B                      E
I THINK IF YOU WERE HERE THE WORDS WOULD RING CRYSTAL CLEAR
A                                E B7             E
FROM THIS HEART THAT'S LEARNING HOW TO SPEAK ITS MIND.
C#m                      C#m            G#m                     G#m
YOU FIGHT FOR TRUTH WITH LOVE. YOU'RE AN IRON HAND IN A VELVET GLOVE.
          A              E              B7
IT'S THE KIND OF STRENGTH THAT MAKES A GENTLE MAN
    E                   A   B7                   E
BUT I'M A CHILD OF THE WIND. I'VE BEEN BLOWN AWAY BUT I'M BACK AGAIN
A                         E    B7      E
I JUST DON'T KNOW IF YOU REALLY UNDERSTAND.

          E                 A
SUNLIGHT MOVES ACROSS THE FLOOR
            B                     E
THERE'S A SOFT BREEZE THROUGH THE OPEN DOOR
A                   E            B7
A SLEEPY CAT LAYING ON THE WINDOWSILL
         E         A  B7                E
ON THIS LAZY AFTERNOON LIKE HONEY ON A SILVER SPOON
A                    E  B7           E
THE MEMORY OF YOUR SMILE IS WITH ME STILL
C#m                      C#m           G#m              G#m
DON'T TELL ME THAT IT'S WRONG TO SAY I LOVE YOU WITH A SONG
          A               E                    B7
WHEN THE WORDS WON'T COME, I'VE SEEN YOU DO IT TOO.
      E           A   B7                 E
THIS ROAD WINDS ALONG. ONE DAY WE'LL BE GONE
           A                 E     B7         E
BUT I'LL HAVE THIS SONG TO BRING ME CLOSE TO YOU.

      A                  E     B7         E
I'LL HAVE THIS SONG TO BRING ME CLOSE TO YOU.
