[Verse]

E        B  A/C# E
  You're in my arms
   F#m/A    G#m/B     E
And all the world is gone
    F#m/A G#m/B C#m      G#m/B A
The music playing on for only two
B/A G#m   A
 So close together
E/B                  B
And when I'm with you
   G#m      F#/A#     A/B  B
So close to feeling alive


[Verse]

E  B    A/C# E
 A life goes by
 F#m/A   G#m/B        E
Romantic dreams must die
 F#m/A   G#m/B    C#m     G#m/B  A
So I bid mine goodbye and never knew
B/A G#m       A        E/B                  B
 So close was waiting, waiting here with you
    G#m    F#/A#   A/B B
And now forever I know
           A     F#m  A/B     B
All that I want is to hold you
   G#m
So close


[Chorus]

   F#/A#    B             F#/C#        C#
So close to reaching that famous happy end
  A#m    B       F#/C#                 C#
Almost believing this one's not pretend
    F#/A#    B           F#/C#    A#        D#m
Now you're beside me and look how far we've come
  F#/C#   C#     F#   B
So far we are so close

[Pre-Chorus]

F#   D#m         F#/C#    B  C#     F# 
 Oh, how could I face the faceless days
  D#m       F/A     C#
If I should lose you now?


[Chorus]

       C# F#/A#
 We're so close
   B             F#/C#           C#
To reaching that famous happy end
  F#/A#  B       F#/C#                 C#
Almost believing this one's not pretend
      F#/C# B        F#/C#       A#   D#m
Let's go on dreaming though we know we are
   F#/C#
So close
   C# 
So close
             F# A#m D#m Bm F#
And still so far
