Intro -x4-: Ab  F

Ab                  F
The closer I get to you
Ab                 F
The more you make me see
Ab                     F
By giving me all you've got
Ab                    F
Your love has captured me


Db            Eb
Over and over again
                            Ab 
I tried to tell myself that we
                         Eb
Could never be more than friends

And all the while inside
   Db          Eb
I knew it was real
          Gb
The way you make me feel


Ab                 F
Lying here next to you
Ab               F
Time just seems to fly
Ab                  F
Needing you more and more
Ab              F
Let's give love a try


Db                       Eb
Sweeter and sweeter love grows
                        Db
And Heaven's there for those
                         Eb
Who fooled the tricks of time
                             Db
With the hearts of love they find
    Eb         Gb
True love in a special way


Ab                  F
The closer I get to you
Ab                F
The more you make me see
Ab                     F
By giving me all you've got
Ab                  F
Your love has captured me


Db             Eb
Over and over again
                           Db
I tried to tell myself that we
                         Eb
Could never be more than friends
                           Db          Eb
And all the while inside I knew it was real
             Gb
The way you make me feel


Ab                  F
The closer I get to you
Ab                  F
The closer I get to you
Ab            F
The closer I get to you
Ab           F      Ab
The closer I get...
