 Subject: The Closer You Get
 "The Closer You Get"
 by James P. Pennington and Mark Gray
 performed by ALABAMA
 4/4 time
 G F C   C  D|Em   Em  D|C   C  D|Em   Bm   Am   C/D
 Chorus:
 The Closer You Get,[G]
 the further I fall.[C]
 I'll be [Am]over the edge now [D]
 in no time at [G]all. [D]
 I'm fallin' [G]faster and faster and faster
 with no time to stall.[C]
 The Closer You Get,[Am] [C/D]
 the further I fall[G]
              
 G   G  F|C
 
 verse 1:
 [C]The things that you say to me,[D]|[Em]
 the look on your face, [D]
 [C]brings out the man in me.[D] [Em]
 Do I see a trace[Bm] in your eyes[Am] of love?[C/D]
 
 (repeat chorus)
 
 verse 2:
 Could I be dreamin'?
 Is this really real?
 'Cause there's something magic,
 the way that I feel in your arms tonight.
 
 (repeat chorus)
  ---goes into the bridge---
 [C/D] the further I fall[C]
 
 Bridge:
 [C]keep fall-[D]in', oh, yeah [C]yeah, keep fall-[D]in'.
 [C]mmm fall-[D/C]in', oh, yeah [C]yeah, I'm fall-[D/C]in'.
 [C]Yes I'm fall-[D/C]in'                [C]                [D/C]
                            (Yes I'm fallin')
               (yes I'm fallin')            
 [C]Yes I'm fall-[D/C]in'                [C]                [D/C]
                            (Yes I'm fallin')
               (yes I'm fallin')            
 [C]Yes we're fall-[D/C]in'                     [C]         [D]
                                 (yes we're fallin')
                 (yes we're fallin')
 
 [repeat chorus, and fade]

 I think electric guitar intro and chorus parts go like this:
   G    F  C     D   Em        D C
 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
 ----------5-5-5/7-7/9--9-9--9\7\5----------------------------------------
 --5--5/3--5-5-5/7-7/9--9-9--9\7\5-------------------------------------------
 --5--5/3--3-3-3/5-5/7--7-7--7\5\3-------------------------------------------
 --3--3/1--------------------------------------------------------------------
                                  
 and hit these bar chords on their respective parts as well:
 Bm    Am    D/C---same as D 
 ----  ----
 ----  ----
 ----  ----
 -9--  --7-
 -9--  --7-
 -7--  --5-                
 You can also hear another guitar doing an arpeggio with the minor chords when 
 they start with Em, Bm toward the verse/intro end.
