Closer To Heaven

INTRO:
D  G   A  Bm
G  D   A  A


VERSE:
D             G
 I have built an empire
      D                 G
On a beach of shifting sand
D                 G
To see the walls broke down so fast
 D                  G
Thought it was the end

 D                  G
Thought I was close to living
     D          G
But never close to free
       D                 G
I was looking for a high I could not find
       D               G
Until you came down to me


CHORUS:
G           D
Oh, what a blessing
       F#7           Bm7   Bm
For a heart that's always drifting
G           A
I was lost for so long
G                 A
Thought that part of me was gone

         G                  D
And the love that you were giving
         F#7        Bm7  Bm
Was the something I was missing
G          Em
So goodbye to sad songs and
 Bm   A
Hello to moving on

         Bm              D         Em
Now the hell that I was livin' is through
               A               Bm     Bm G
I'm closer to Heaven when I'm with you

                       A     Bm   G  D
I want to be a little closer-er
                   A
Come a little bit closer, baby


VERSE:
 D          G
I've jumped in the fire
    D                G
To watch the flames turn blue
             D                       G
Yet there's something in your smile that drives me wild
     D                 G
And makes me come back to you


PD-C HORUS:
        Em                  D            G
When I sail my ship on the sea of loneliness
            Em              D              G     A
You're the lighthouse that shows me where love is


CHORUS:
G           D
Oh, what a blessing
       F#7           Bm7   Bm
For a heart that's always drifting
G           A
I was lost for so long
G                 A

         G                  D
And the love that you were giving

BDA K:
      Bm           A
As a sinner and a saint
        G           F#m
And my own worst enemy
             Em             D             G G A
You make it easy to be the man I want to be
A
Oh oh oh woh oh  oh oh

I want to be a little closer, closer, closer

Come a little bit closer, baby
