[G]
[D] So leave your taxi waiting
And [G] turn and close my door
[D] And sit back down where you were sitting [G] a little closer than before
[D] When you look that serious
[G] It just makes me want you [Em] more
[Bm] and I've
[A] been meaning
to [Em] tell you
The closer [D] you get
Better I [A] feel
The closer [F#m] you are
The more I [G] see
Why everyone [D] says that I look happier when you're [F#m] around
The closer [G] you get
The better [D] I feel
And yes, I know you're nervous
[G] Never seen you so unsure
[D] You haven't touched your food tonight [G] and you're drinking more and more
[D] And there's no need to hurry
[G] Take your time.
I'll still be [Em] here
[Bm] and I've
[A] been meaning
to [Em] tell you
The closer [D] you get
Better I feel
Closer [F#m] you are
More [G] I see why everyone [D] says that I look happier when you're [F#m] around
Better [G] I feel
Closer [D] you get
The better you see
Closer [F#m] you are
More [G] I see why everyone [D] says that I [A] look happier when you're [F#m] around
Closer [G] you get
Better [D] I feel
[A] Better [F#m] I feel
[G] [D] We've been suckling for [A] time baby
[F#m] coming down [G] to learn
Tonight [D] wait is over [A] now.
It's easy
[F#m]
[G] Everything's fine
The closer [D] you get
Better [A] I feel
Closer [F#m] you are
More I [G] see why everyone [D] says that I [A] look happier when you're [F#m] around
Better [G] I feel
Closer [D] you get
Better [A] you see closer [F#m] you are
More I [G] see why everyone [D] says that I [A] look happier when you're [F#m] around
Closer [G] you get
Better [D] I feel
