xYou need your capo in II for this; this makes the chords so much simpler! The time
signature shanges quite a lot.
Intro:
D / A / | D/F# / / / | G / / / | D/A / A A7|
Verse:
D A/E D/F#
How can I think I'm standing strong
G D
Yet feel the air beneath my feet
Bm A G
How can happiness feel so wrong
F#m A7 D
How can misery feel so sweet
D A/E D/F#
How can you let me watch you sleep
G D
Then break my dreams the way you do
Bm A G
How can I have got in so deep
F#m A7 D
Why did I fall in love with you
Chorus:
A7
This is the
D Bm
Closest thing to crazy I have ever been
Em7 D/A
Feeling 22, acting 17
A
This is the
D Bm
Nearest thing to crazy I have ever known
Em7 Gm
I was never crazy on my own
D Bm G Bb
And now I know that there's a link between the two
D Bm A7 D
Being close to craziness and being close to you
A/E / D/F# | / / | Gm / / / | D / / / |
Repeat verse and chorus in same way
Verse 2 lyrics:
How can you let me fall apart
Then break my fall with loving lies
It's so easy to break a heart
It's so easy to close your eyes
How can you treat me like a child
Yet like a child I yearn for you
How could anyone be so wild
How could anyone be so blue
After Chorus 2, instead of the between chorus and verse sequence:
Bm / G | Am4 / D / | D / Bm / | A7 / D / | Bm / G | Am4 / D / |
This should all be correct, as I've played it about a hundred times with and without the CD.
