Closest I Get

C          Em       Am
 What if I wait and you don't show
     F        C            F       G
If I left you half just to keep me whole
C          Em      Am
 What if I held my breath so long
          F          C           F         G
Would you notice the silence had lasted so long
G                                G7        C
What if the closest I get to the moment is now

Interlude: C  Em  Am  F  C  F  G

C       Em        Am
 I have seen love come & go
  F          C            F          G
I watched it pass with my heart held close
C           Em   Am
 There's no easy way to know
       F       C          F           G
If I'm looking back or if I'm getting close
G                                G7
What if the closest I get to the moment is now

Interlude: C  Em  Am  F  C  F  G

C       Em     Am
Love it has no guarantees
      F         C       F        G
Which muse will lay its hands on me
C            Em       Am
 We said the words we knocked on wood
        F          C          F        G
And I'm still here waiting to see what could be.
G                                G7        C
What if the closest I get to the moment is now?
