    D                           G
So leave your taxi waiting and turn and
close my door
     D                                      G
And sit back down where you were sitting a little
closer than before
      D
When you look that serious it
      G                 Em
just makes me want you more
    Bm         A         Em
And I've been meaning to tell you

Chorus:
                D                 A
The closer you get, the better I feel
               F#m              G
The closer you are, the more I see
              D                A
Why everyone says that I look happier
             F#m
When you're around
                G                 D
The closer you get, the better I feel

And yes I know you're nervous
Never seen you so unsure
You haven't touched your food, tonight
And you're drinking more and more
And there's no need to hurry
Take your time I'll still be here
And I've been meaning to tell you

Chorus:
The closer you get, the better I feel
The closer you are, the more I see
Why everyone says that I look happier
When you're around, the better I feel
The closer you get, the better you see
The closer you are, the more I see
Why everyone says that I look happier
When you're around, the closer you get
The better I feel
The better I feel

            D            A
We've been circling for time baby
       F#m            G
We're coming down to land tonight
     D                 A
The wait is over and now it's easy
F#m            G
Everything is fine

Chorus:
The closer you get, the better I feel
The closer you are, the more I see
Why everyone says that I look happier
When you're around, the better I feel
The closer you get, the better you see
The closer you are, the more I see
Why everyone says that I look happier
When you're around, the closer you get
The better I feel
