Chorus:
[Am]My mind [G]wanders through [C]all that I've been hiding from
[Am]I tried [G]not to let you [C]down
[Am]Now I [G]wonder if [C]I've been doin' something wrong
[Am]Help me get my [G]feet back on the [C]gro...[Am]ou….[D]nd [G]
[G]Tomorrow I'll be [D]lying under [Em]you
[D]With [G]a [Am]heart of gold and [G]arms to fall in[D]to
I [Am]know that there might [G]come a day
where [D]my [G]life is [C]through
But [Am]I just want to [G]be [D]closer to [G]you
[Chorus]
[G]Someday we might [D]learn to tell the [Em]truth
[D]We [G]might [Am]even find the [G]fountains of our [D]youth
[Am]We all needed some[G]thing real we [D]all [G]need [C]proof
[Am]I just want to [G]be [D]closer to [Em]you
[Am]I know I want to [G]be [D]closer to [G]you

INTRO [G] [G] [C] [C]
It's [G]hard to let the [D]miles pass me [Em]by
[D]Ye[G]llow [Am]lines that blend to[G]gether in my [D]eyes
And [Am]when the seasons [G]change again then [D]I [G]will [C]too
But [Am]I just want to [G]be [D]closer to [G]you
[G]I'm staring out at [D]endless rows of [Em]green
[D]There [G]are [Am]miles of hay [G]like I have never [D]seen
Just [Am[when you think you've [G]had enough and
your [D]dreams [G]come [C]true
[Am]I just want to [G]be [D]closer to [G]you

Sing It Again (Beck)
Chords used: A-C#7-D-B7-E-F-A7-D7
C#7: 4-4-6-4-6-4
B7: x-2-1-2-0-2
[A]A town of disre[C#7]spect
The trains are [D]wrecked, the night is [A]younger than us
[B7]Nowhere is anywhere [E]else, you keep to your[A]self
Stirring the [D]dregs where I have [A]laid
[F]The exit [E]signs are flashing
[A]Dead ends [A7]they won't [D]come to [D7]life any[A]more
[A]I pledge the [C#7]rest
I should have [D]guessed, your love was [A]hanging by threads
[B7]Tongues tied under the [E]moon, my love is a [A]room of broken [D]bottles
And tangled [A]webs
[F]The misers [E]wind their minds
Like [A]clocks that [A7]grind their [D]gears [D7]
On and [A]on
[Solo]
[A]And if it's [C#7]meant
Some acci[D]dent, some co[A]incidence
[B7]Crumbs fall out of the [E]sky, when you wander [A]by
The dust clouds [D]blow, nobody's [A]home
[F]Oh won't you [E]lay my bags
U[A]pon on the [A7]funeral [D]fire and [D7]sing it a[A]gain
[Harmonica Solo]
[F]Oh won't you [E]lay my bags
U[A]pon on the [A7]funeral [D]fire and [D7]sing it a[A]gain
