G G C C [Verse]
GDEm It's hard to let the miles pass me by
DGAmGD Yellow lines that blend together in my eyes
AmGD GC And when the seasons change again then I will too
AmGDG I just want to be closer to you
GDEm I'm staring out at endless rows of green
DGAmGD There are miles of hay like I have never seen
AmG Just when you think you've had enough and
DGC your dreams come true
AmGDG I just want to be closer to you
 [Chorus]
AmGC My mind wanders through all that I've been hiding from
AmGC I tried not to let you down
AmGC Now I wonder if I've been doin' something wrong
AmGC-G-Am-D-G Help me get my feet back on the ground
 [Verse]
GDEm Tomorrow I'll be lying under you
DGAmGD With a heart of gold and arms to fall into
AmG I know that there might come a day
DGC where my life is through
AmGDG But I just want to be closer to you
 [Verse]
GDEm Someday we might learn to tell the truth
DGAmGD We might even find the fountains of our youth
AmGDGC We all needed something real we all need proof
AmGDEm I just want to be closer to you
AmGDG
