Chords for Indigo Girls - Closer to Fine (Official Lyric Video)

_ _ _ [F#m] _ _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ [A] _ _ _ [F#m] _ _
_ _ _ [E] _ _ [A] I'm trying to tell you [F#m] something about my life
_ [E] _
[A] Maybe give me [F#m] insight between black and white
[F#] _ _ And the best thing you've ever done [D] for me
_ _ Is [F#] to help me take my life less [D] seriously
_ It's only [A] life after all
[F#m] _ _ Yeah _
_ [E] _ [A] Well darkness has a hunger that's _ [E] insatiable
_ [A] And lightness has [F#m] a call that's [D] hard to hear
_ [F#] _
Now wrap my fear around me like a blanket
_ I [F#] sail my ship of safety [D] till I sank it.
I'm crawling [A] on your shores _
_ _ [E] I went to the doctor.
[D] I went [A] to the mountains.
[E] I look to the children
[F#m] I drank from [A] the fountains.
[F#] There's more than one answer [D] to these questions
_ Pointing me [A] in a crooked line _
[F#] And the less I seek my source for [D] some definitive
_ Closer [A] I am to [Bm] find _
_ [E] Yeah
_ Closer [A] I am to _ find [E] Yeah _ _ _
[A] I went to see the doctor of [F#m] philosophy
_ [E] _ [A] With a poster of [F#m] Rasputin and a beard down to [F#] his knee
He never did marry
But he did love me
[D] Well see it'd be a great movie
[F#] He graded my _ performance
[D] He said it could see through me
I [A] spent four years [E] prostrate to the [D] higher mind
[E] Got my paper [A] and I was free
_ I [E] _ went to the doctor
I went [A] to the mountains
[E] I look to the children
I drank from [A] the fountains
[F#] There's more than one answer [D] to these questions
Pointing me [A] in a crooked line _
[F#] And the less I seek my source [D] for some definitive
_ Closer [A] I am to [F#] find _
[E] _ Yeah
_ Closer [A] I am to [F#m] find _ _ Yeah
[E] Closer
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [F#] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ [A] _ _ I am to find
I stopped by the bar at 3am
_ [E] To [A] seek solace [E] in a bottle
Or possibly a friend
[F#] And I woke up with a headache
[D] Like my head against a board
[F#] And I looked up to the sky
Twice as cloudy as I'd [D] been the night before
And I went in [A] seeking clarity
_ I [E] went to the doctor
I went to [A] the mountains
[E] I looked to the children
[F#m] I drank from [A] the fountains
[E] And we go to the doctor
We go [A] to the mountains
[E] We look to the children
[F#] We drink [A] from the fountains
[E] And we go to the Bible
We go through the Bible
We go through the workout
We read a palm or Bible
[A] We stand up for the lookout
[F#] There's more than one answer to [D] these questions
Pointing [A] me in a crooked line
And [F#] the less I seek my source for [D] some definitive _ _
[A] Closer I am to [F#] _ find
[D] _ _
_ [E] Closer [A] I am to [F#m] _ _
find
_ _ [Em] Closer [A] I am to [Bm] find
[D] Closer I am
_ [E] _ _ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
