Closer Jars of Clay
Standard tuning
(Long synth/bass intro, but hey, here are some guitar chords to play along with!)
Well you thou[C]ght you let go, but you’re still hanging on
Mother earth’[Am]s slowing down, she’s still spinning around
And we ar[F]e getting dizzy[C]
I’ll d[C]rop out of the race for more personal space
Cuz the rocke[Am]ts we're in get so cold and I miss your skin[F]
It’s just how I’m feelin'[C]
If you need[G] more love, well you’ve got to get cl[F]ose to me[C]
If you want[G] my love, well you’ve got to get clos[F]er to me[C]
No unreach[C]able itch, if you hemorrhage I’ll stitch
You are tears,[Am] I’m a cheek, I’m a pail on your boat with slow leaks [F]
Out to sea for weeks[C]
If you want[G] my love, well you’ve got to get clos[F]e to me[C]
If you want[G] my love, well you’ve got to get clos[F]er to me[C]
[G]Oh, if you want my love[F]
[C]I don’t understand why we can’t get close enough[Em7] [F]
I want your kite str[C]ings tangled in my dreams all wrapped up[Em7] [F]
[C]I don’t understand why we can’t get close enough[Em7] [F]
I’ll be the comets [C]that are fallin’ from the sky you light up…[Em7] [F]
Light up[C]
You’re my shirt, I a[C]n arm
I’m the tick, you’re the bomb
You’re the L and th[Am]e V, I’m the O and the E, and we…[F]
[G]Am I speaking clearly?[C]
If you want [G]my love, well you’ve got to get close to me[F] [C]
[G]Ooh, if you want my [F]love…
[C]I don’t understand why we can’t get close enough[Em7] [F]
I want your kite str[C]ings tangled in my dreams all wrapped up[Em7] [F]
[C]I don’t understand why we can’t get close enough[Em7] [F]
I’ll be the comets [C]that are fallin’ from the sky you light up…[Em7] [F]
Because I don’t [C]understand why we can’t get close enough[Em7] [F]
I’ll miss the shivers [C]in my spine every time that we touch.[Em7]
