Am7
In the morning when I wake
C                     G
And the sun is coming through,
                           Am7
Oh, you fill my lungs with sweetness,
C                         G
And you fill my head with you.
                      Am7
Shall I write it in a letter?
C                     G
Shall I try to get it down?
                          Am7
Oh, you fill my head with pieces
C                     G
Of a song I can't get out.

[Chorus]
N.C.               Am7
Can I be close to you?
            C             G
Ooh-oo-oo-ooh, ooh-oo-oo-ooh.
                   Am7
Can I be close to you?
            C             G
Ooh-oo-oo-ooh, ooh-oo-oo-ooh.

[Verse 2]
                   Am7
Can I take it to a morning
C                            G
Where the fields are painted gold
                                Am7
And the trees are filled with memories
C                     G
Of the feelings never told?
                               Am7
When the evening pulls the sun down,
C                     G
And the day is almost through,
                          Am7
Oh, the whole world it is sleeping,
C                 G
  But my world is you.

[Chorus]
N.C.               Am7
Can I be close to you?
            C             G
Ooh-oo-oo-ooh, ooh-oo-oo-ooh.
                   Am7
Can I be close to you?
            C             G
Ooh-oo-oo-ooh, ooh-oo-oo-ooh.

                   Am7
Can I be close to you?

Ooh-oo-oo-ooh, ooh-oo-oo-ooh.
                   Am7
Can I be close to you?

Ooh-oo-oo-ooh, ooh-oo-oo-ooh.
