Alternative, maybe easier, version:
  • Transpose the chords 1 half step down [ -1 ]
  • Put a capo on fret 1 to stay in the same key

Ebm Gb Db Gb Bbm7

                       Ebm
In the morning when I wake
                       Gb
And the sun is coming through,
                           Db
Oh, you fill my lungs with sweetness,
Gb                         Bbm7
And you fill my head with you.


                       Ebm
Shall I write it in a letter?
                       Gb
Shall I try to get it down?
                          Db
Oh, you fill my head with pieces
Gb                     Bbm7  - stop -
Of a song I can't get out.


                   Ebm
Can I be close to you?
           Gb              Db      Gb    Bbm7

Ooh-oo-oo-ooh, ooh-oo-oo-ooh.


                    Ebm
Can I take it to a moment
                              Gb
Where the fields are painted gold
                              Db
And the trees are filled with memories
Gb                     Bbm7
Of the feelings never told?


                           Ebm
When the evening pulls the sun down,
                       Gb
And the day is almost through,
                           Db
Oh, the whole world it is sleeping,
Gb               Bbm7   - stop -
But my world is you.


                   Ebm
Can I be close to you?

Can I be close to you?

Ooh-oo-oo-ooh, ooh-oo-oo-ooh.
