Am Am/B C Am/G Fmaj7 Am Am/B C Am/G Fmaj7
My love, how does it know?
Am Am/B C Am/G Fmaj7 Am Am/B C Am/G Fmaj7
How the hell is she home?
Am Am/B C Am/G Fmaj7 Am Am/B C Am/G Fmaj7
Oh my god, she's home
Dm7 F
You had me long before you could know
Am G
The back of my mind I couldn't get you to go
Dm7 F
And as our conversation came to an end
Am G
I found myself closer to you again
Am Am/B C Am/G Fmaj7
Closer to you
Am Am/B C Am/G Fmaj7 Am Am/B C Am/G Fmaj7
I'm not sure where I stand
Am Am/B C Am/G Fmaj7 Am Am/B C Am/G Fmaj7
The best nights can't be planned
Dm7 F
You had me long before you could know
Am G
The back of my mind I couldn't get you to go
Dm7 F
And as our conversation came to an end
Am G
I found myself closer to you again
Dm7 F
Several signs led me to this place
Am G
Don't fancy my chances if it's left to fate
Dm7 F
Something told me to take that chance
Am G
The whiskey may have had something to do with that
Dm7 F
And a girl outta nowhere appeared
Am G
She told me to kiss you and then disappeared
Dm7 F
And the music it started to end
Am G
And I found myself closer to you again
Dm7 F Am G
Closer to you Oh
Dm7 F
You had me long before you could know
Am G
The back of my mind I couldn't get you to go
Dm7 F
And as the concert it came to an end
Am G
I found myself closer to you again
Am Am/B C Am/G Fmaj7
Closer to you
