Em 28 days of rain Flashfloods in February C Back in our boats again Bathwater and the baby Em What am I gonna do? There's been a lot of drinking C Looking at ghosts of you While all the world is sinking Ten thousand miles into the atmosphere My body shakes, is there a welcome here? G A C Ten thousand miles into the atmosphere, G A C My body shakes, Is there a welcome here ? Chorus: Em C Closest thing to heaven Em How do you do it C Am Closest thing to heaven, heaven. Throw your arms 'round the world Make love your destination Here we go, boys and girls Act like a generation Give me that ball and chain By now it must be hurting Dragging your feet again Just like a beast of burden When one and one and one make two I know I'm high because I've captured you Yeah Chorus: Closest thing to heaven Yes, you Closest thing to heaven, heaven F G Look the world right in the eye F G Eat the countries that are making billions F G Sweet as homemade apple pie A Saved by crumbs for all the starving millions, Chorus: Closest thing to heaven Closest thing to heaven How do you do it?
