Closer To Home

C         G/B         Am
  Today I got myself back.
Dm                      G
  I've been looking so long.
C         G/B     Am
  Another lonely track
Dm                  G
  got me closer to home.

C        G/B       Am
  In memory of the day
Dm                      G
  we stopped trying to hide
C          G/B         Am
  I came today just to say
Dm                            G
  you took the thorn from my side


[chorus]
F         F - F#           C     G/B      Am (Am/G)
  I know         it's not easy to be with me
         F         F#dim        G
But you never stop crossing my mind
F             E                            A
  Let's just say you've got one hell of a hold on me
     C             F
The only price to pay
        E                              A
Do you know you've done one heck of a thing
             C                   F
To free my mind from yesterday
            E
Let's just say


[verse]
C                G/B         Am
  Sometime we'll read to the end
Dm                         G
  When all the colour has dried
C             G/B          Am
  You've been more than a friend
Dm                       G
  Now’s the time for goodbye
C           G/B         Am
  Would you come to see me
Dm                              G
  Just let me know that you're there


[chorus]
F         F - F#           C     G/B      Am (Am/G)
  I know         it's not easy to be with me
         F         F#dim        G
But you never stop crossing my mind
F             E                            A
  Let's just say you've got one hell of a hold on me
     C             F
The only price to pay
        E                              A
Do you know you've done one heck of a thing
             C                   F
To free my mind from yesterday
            E
Let's just say
