I always want more
                F
I'm never gonna get it
                    G
You're gonna be the one I never got that got away
         C
And I'll regret it

Just a moment in time
             F
But I can't forget it
    G                   C
Yeah, we almost said it
           
If this is love, ooh
             F
I should be dying
               G
But I'm going downtown like I still care
                C
Like I'm still trying
                      F
I said I was over you but I'm lying
    G                  C
There, I almost said it
C              F
Every time you look at me
Am                G
I say it silently
    F                  C             
Oh, when will you wake up and get it
Am          G
This close, we almost said it


       C
I know you're not evil
         F
So why do you tease me
                     G
Yeah, staying around here late at night
               C
You don't make it easy
                          F
It's in my body language, read me
      G
We were this close
             C
This close, yeah
             C            F
And it's like every time you look at me
Am              G
I say it silently
     F               C
Oh, wake up, baby, come and get it
Am               G
This close, we almost said it
C                    F
You say that you're still not free
      Am                   G
Well, I hear selectively
       F                 C
That still means someday you might be
   Am            G
Oh, this close, yeah, yeah

Interlude: C

               C
You wrote me a song
        F
I often play it
           G       
Depending on where I am with you
                    C
I either love it or I hate it
C                                     F
We were just this close but we couldn't say it
           G
We were this close
