[Verse 1]
B E
I went out to buy you flowers
B E
If only CVS carried beauty like your own
Eb7 G#m
I arrived and you found me empty-handed
C#m Ebm E F#
But I still found your arms are open wide at home.....
B E
When I first saw you smiling
B E
I wondered if one day your smile would be for me
Eb7 G#m
I had doubts, but I couldn’t shake the feeling
C#m Ebm E
And I still waited for the time to come around
[Chorus]
F# B
When you hold me close
C#m E F#
I feel the world shifting into gear.....
B
My heart returns
C#m E F#
And your tenderness melts away my fear....
G DM7
When you hold me close.....
B E F#
When you hold me close........
[Verse 2]
B E
I take you up to the water tower
B E
If only we could see this far on the road ahead
Eb7
At night I find I toss and turn
G#m C#7
Dreaming of your return
C#m
But your feelings take some time
F#
And we are almost there
[Chorus]
B
When you hold me close
C#m Ebm E F#
I feel the world shifting into gear...
B
My heart returns
C#m Ebm E F#
And your tenderness melts away my fear...
G DM7
I’m so glad it’s you.....
B E F#
I’m so glad it’s you.......
