Close To You

[Primeira Parte]

     E
The flowers of the new and laughter of the past
         F#                  G#m        F#
They're beautiful like you, beauty unsurpassed
E
Gone with a whisper, you fall asleep like death
F#                           B
Breaking through the earth, your smile shines again

( F#  E  F#  D#m )
( G#m  F#  E  F# )
( D#m   G#m  F# )

[Segunda Parte]

  E
My empty gratitude, another empty thank you
   F#                         G#                F#
I finally learnt regret from words I've always said
     E
Never meant to speak to hurt, yet it hurt to put in words
F#                        G#m              F#
Goodbye wherever you are, goodbye unbroken heart

[Pré-Refrão]

  C#m                        B
In truth I want to feel, the truth I want to see
                                    F#
I'm trying to embrace your drifting heart and smile

[Refrão]

           E                                    F#
Whenever I begin to feel the burning tears overflowing from my eyes
                  D#m                                         G#m
I keep on looking forward at you, hoping that your light will never pass me by
                  E                                    F#
I wonder what the stars that sparkle in your eyes are hiding from my mind
                G#m                      F#
Hiding from my open heart and from your open heart
                  E                                   F#
Together, you and I will always be alive, connected, close to you I'll stay
                 D#m                                    G#m               F#
As long as I can hold your hand again and again, forever, I will find my way
              E                                  F#
You may never answer back my call, but you smile back at me with grace
                G#m                             F#
And everything remains the same, this pain I'll soon awake from
        E                F#
What I see will melt all away
         B
With my tears

[Terceira Parte]

   E
A shape of broken line will never be the same
      F#                       G#m      F#
It'll never find new life as a body of remains
   E
A soul without a form, endlessly it'll chase
    F#            B      Bm           B
But will my broken heart find another place?

[Pré-Refrão]

   C#m                       D#m
In truth I want to feel, the truth I'll never see
     E                            F#
I'm trying to erase how far we've walked in miles

[Refrão]

           E                                         F#
Whenever I begin to feel the burning tears as I look up at the sky
                   D#m                                    G#m
I keep on looking forward at it hoping that I'll find you soon enough in time
                 E                                 F#
I wonder if the stars that sparkle in my eyes will eventually subside
               G#m
Hiding from my endless heartbeat, from my endless heartbeat
                  E                                  F#
Together, you and I will always be alive, committed, close to you I'll stay
                 D#m                                        G#m
As long as I can hold your hand again and again, then maybe I will find a way
             E                                  F#
I can never travel back in time, but they smile back at me, those days
               G#m                              F#
And everything remains the same, this pain I'll soon awake from
        E                F#
What I see will melt all away
        B
With my tears

[Ponte]

E
Replaying time again, replaying time again
G#m                   F#
Repeating time again, repeating time again
E
Reflected in my heart, reflected in my heart
F#
Your never ending laughter

             E
Whenever I begin to feel the burning tears

F                                    G
Can't you feel the burning tears overflowing from my eyes?
                  Em                                      Am
I keep on looking forward at you hoping that in time your light will pass me by
               F                                   G
Now I know the stars that sparkle in your eyes are guiding me to light
              Am
Guiding to my open heart and to your open heart
                  F                                  G
Together, you and I will always be alive, connected, close to you I'll stay
                Em                                          Am
Time will never hold my tears or hold my feelings down they pour like silent rain
               F                                 G
All the colors forming back the life I knew when all remained the same
              Am                          G
Somehow in a finite time, this time I'll find my way out
       F                      G
And I see I've barely reached you
          C
And your heart
