[Verso 1]E
Fresh white flowers and a new tea light
E
Nine cups of water, still water
A
Soon I'll see your face
A A7
Don't know why I ever thought you were far away
A
I should've known better
[Pré-Refrão] E
If I set a flame and I call your name
E A
I'll fix you a plate, we can go to dinner
A A7
We can share a meal your way
A A7
And I'll play you the songs that you used to play
[Refrão] E A
So I put you on the altar, stay just a little bit longer, woah
A
Laid it out for ya', thought I felt you before
E A
Now you're closer, closer, woah
E A
So I put you on the altar, stay just a little bit longer, woah
A
Laid it out for ya', thought I felt you before
E A
Now you'rе closer, closer, woah, woah
[Verso 2]E
Holdin' on to things you told me
E
Holdin' on to drеams you showed me
A
Holdin' on to anything from you
A E
That you've been leaving here
E
Now I believe I swear
E A
I can smell your perfume
A
Picking up your signal like a phonebooth
A
Keeping you alive and I do it 'cause I want to
[Pré-Refrão] E
If I set a flame and I call your name
E A
I'll fix you a plate, we can go to dinner
A A7
We can share a meal your way
A A7
And I'll play you the songs that you used to play
[Refrão] E A
So I put you on the altar, stay just a little bit longer, woah

Laid it out for ya', thought I felt you before

Now you're closer, closer, woah (Now you're closer)
E A
So I put you on the altar, stay just a little bit longer, woah
