Em You've applied the pressure Bm A To have me crystalised Em And you've got the faith Bm A That I could bring paradise I'll forgive and forget Before I'm paralysed Do I have to keep up the pace To keep you satisfied Things have gotten closer to the sun And I've done things in small doses So don't think that I'm pushing you away When you're the one that I've kept closest [ahh ahh ahh] x4 You don't move slow Taking steps in my directions The sound resounds, echo Does it lesson your affection No You say I'm foolish For pushing this aside But burn down our home I won't leave alive Glacies have melted to the sea I wish the tide would take me over I've been down on my knees And you just keep on getting closer [ahh ahh ahh] x4 Glacies have melted to the sea ( Things have gotten closer to the sun ) I wish the tide would take me over ( And I've done things in small doses ) I've been down onto my knees ( So don't think that I'm pushing you away ) And you just keep on getting closer ( When you're the one that I've kept closest ) Go slow x5 This arrangement is its contributor’s own interpretation, shared for private study, education and non-commercial use.

Horrible. I’ve been using C, Cmaj7, Am, D. And that’s worked a lot better. I don’t know where we came up with the chords shown here…
