Michael W. Smith - Draw Me Close To You Please use this video as reference, it's in the same key: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7d_oYr-P16M * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *Beginners please read this * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Main chord/Bass Note, For example: * * E/G# would be a chord of E with a bass note of G# * * We read it as "E over G sharp" played like 4X2400 * * * * Please don't be put off by the unfamiliar chords, * * try it and practice it, it sounds quite nice. * * While doing this, you are adding more chord variations into your arsenal of chords c: * * * * So just remember this is not set in stone. It's just a guide. * * You can improvise and change the way you play it. * * Personally I like to play the chords in this voicing: * * * * Verse chords: * * A X0990X * * D or Dmaj7 X577XX * * E/A 07990X * * Esus2/G# X6640X * * F#m X9790X * * * * Chorus Chords: * * A X0240X * * D or Dmaj7 XX023X * * D/A X0023X * * D/F# 2X023X * * E or Esus4 02240X This is actually how to play an E5 but it sounds ok here :) * * Esus2/G# 4X240X * * F#m X4420X * * F#m/E 04420X * * * * Why are there two sets of chords? Verse and chorus chords? * * Verse chords have a light, intimate sound and the chorus chords are full and bright. * * Play it and see :) * * * * I have the last high E string muted on all the chords. * * It sounds less jarring when playing with an entire band. * * And since this song is in the key of A having that high E note ringing out isn't that great for me. * * Feel free to play the last E string if it sounds better to you :) * * !!! Most importantly !!! You are not playing music, you are praising God! if your heart is in it, * * He will accept your praise no matter how badly or how beautifully you play. God Bless * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Key A [Verse 1] A D/A Draw me close to You E/A A Never let me go Esus2/G# D/F# I lay it all down again F#m F#m/E Dmaj7 To hear You say that I'm Your friend [Verse 2] A D/A You are my desire E/A A No one else will do Esus2/G# D/F# Cause nothing else can take Your place F#m F#m/E Dmaj7 To feel the warmth of Your embrace [Pre-Chorus] A/E D/E Help me find the way E A D/E Bring me back to You [Chorus] A E/A D/A You're all I want A E/G# D/F# Esus4 E You're all I've ever needed A E/A D/A You're all I want Esus4 E A Help me know You are near
