[Intro]

Ab, F 
Ab, F 
Ab, F 
Ab, F 


[Chorus]

Ab                  F
The closer I get to you
Ab                 F
The more you make me see
Ab                     F
By giving me all you've got
Ab                    F
Your love has captured me


[Verse]

Db            Eb
Over and over again
                            Ab*
I tried to tell myself that we
                         Eb
Could never be more than friends
And all the while inside
   Db          Eb
I knew it was real
          F#
The way you make me feel


[Bridge]

Ab                 F
Lying here next to you
Ab               F
Time just seems to fly
Ab                  F
Needing you more and more
Ab              F
Let's give love a try


[Verse]

Db                       Eb
Sweeter and sweeter love grows
                        Db
And Heaven's there for those
                         Eb
Who fooled the tricks of time
                             Db
With the hearts of love they find
    Eb         F#
True love in a special way


[Chorus]

Ab                  F
The closer I get to you
Ab                F
The more you make me see
Ab                     F
By giving me all you've got
Ab                  F
Your love has captured me


[Verse]

Db             Eb
Over and over again
                           Db
I tried to tell myself that we
                         Eb
Could never be more than friends
                           Db          Eb
And all the while inside I knew it was real
             F#
The way you make me feel


[Chorus]

Ab                  F
The closer I get to you
Ab                  F
The closer I get to you
Ab            F
The closer I get to you
Ab           F
The closer I get...
Ab
