CAPO 1

VERSE 1
G              Dsus4
Trying to catch Christmas Eve
        C                  Dsus4 
With a seven-thirty-seven
   G           Dsus4         C        D
Via St. Louis on a threadbare heart

G                  Dsus4
Trying hard to believe
      C                 Dsus4
In ghosts and heaven
G           Dsus4               C      Dsus4
And wheels that turn with a broken part

PRE CHORUS

Am                      D
Stealing kisses over the phone
Am                                D
Making wishes on a bottle of cote d'rome
Am                   Bm                   
Some of these days are longer than
C                              D
The lonely distance that's between them

CHORUS
G                  Dsus4
Let's be closer than we are
C                 Dsus4
To Jupiter or Spain
G               Dsus4
There are two seats at the bar
C                 Dsus4
For Mr. and Mrs. my last name
G                   Dsus4
We are simpler than the stars
C                   Dsus4
That our eyes cannot contain
G           Dsus4       C
Let's be closer than we are


VERSE 2
G              Dsus4
Trying to build galaxies
C               Dsus4
Out of winks and shivers
G              Dsus4            C       Dsus4
That you give me when you call my name

G              Dsus4
Trying to write symphonies
C          Dsus4
With a hand that quivers
G            Dsus4      C        Dsus4
In the storm of your elusive rain

PRECHORUS
Am             D
Leaving lovers on their own
Am                          D
Crawling through burning cities to get back home
Am                    Bm
Some of these days are longer than
C                           D
The lonely distnce that's between them

C                 Dsus4
To Jupiter or Spain
G               Dsus4
There are two seats at the bar
C                 Dsus4
For Mr. and Mrs. my last name
G                   Dsus4
We are simpler than the stars
C                   Dsus4
That our eyes cannot contain
G           Dsus4      C
Let's be closer than we are
G           Dsus4        C
Let's be all that will remain
