[Intro]

Am7 Dm G Am7
[Verse 1]
Am
She'll read your mind
Dm7
She's smart as a whip
Am
She'll suck you dry
Dm7
But look at how much I drip?
G
At the point of ecstasy
E7/G#
I write a symphony
Am
Of poetry in motion
And leavin' me there to die
[Verse 2]
Am Dm7
I tell myself let no one take her place
Am
To confide in someone
Dm7
And look at how much I paid?
G
I want you next to me
E7/G#
Call it telepathy
Am
We drifted into vision
And look at how much we see?
[Interlude]
Dm/F
Ahh
F/G Am
Ah ahh
[Chorus]
Am Dm7 G Am Dm
I just wanna get closer than close to you
Am
I know that one way or the other
Dm7 G
Any test of my faith will do
Dm7 Em7
And lovers fall for lovers' friends
We make each other cry
F
Livin' in each others lives
Ab C Ab
And tryin' to make the fantasy come true
Am Dm7 G Am Dm7 G
I just wanna get closer than close to you, baby
Am Dm7 G Am
I just wanna get closer than close to you
[Verse 3]
Am
Your soul is naked
Dm7
It tells you what you want?
Am
I read your letter
Dm7
And look at how close I've come?
G
There's more for us to see
E7/G#
In this philosophy
Am
We both end up in Heaven
And look at how close we'd be
[Interlude]
Dm/F
Ahh
F/G Am
Ah ahh
[Chorus]
Am Dm7 G Am Dm
I just wanna get closer than close to you
Am
I know that one way or the other
Dm G
Any test of my faith will do
Dm7 Em7
I give my heart for you to break
I give my final breath
F
Nothin' last forever see
Ab C Ab C Ab
We can turn eternity into
[Chorus]
