Come A Little Closer by Cage the Elephant
Tabbed/Edited by: JRAB

The lyrics have been bothering me and I just had to post a version with the 
proper. Props to JoshTheRipper and MrMusicManSaamto for writing this all 
out, but I just want people to learn the right words.  Im sure these are not 
100%, but every lyric website is different.  This one is defiantly the
closest though.

CAPO 4


Intro: Am Em Dm Am


Verse 1:

Am                            Em
Time shakes, found you at the water
                     Dm                            Am
At first you were my father, now I love you like a brother
Am                           Em
Earthquakes shake the dust behind you
                        Dm
This world at times will blind you
                         Am
Still I know Ill see you there


Chorus:

F             Dm                 Am
Come a little closer, then youll see
Am
Come on, come on, come on
F                    Dm               Am
Things arent always what they seem to be
Am
Come on, come on, come on
F           Dm                               Am
Do you understand the things that youve been seein
Am
Come on, come on, come on
F           Dm                               Am
Do you understand the things that youve been dreamin
F             Dm                 Am
Come a little closer, then youll see


Verse 2:

Am                                      Em
Heartbreaks, the heavy worlds upon your shoulders
                        Dm
Will we burn out or just smolder
                          Am
Somehow I know I found you there
Am                        Em
Oooh, wanna see if you can change it,
Dm                               Am
Change it, Still I know I see you there


Chorus:

F             Dm                 Am
Come a little closer, then youll see
Am
Come on, come on, come on
F                    Dm                Am
Things aren't always what they seem to be
F           Dm                               Am
Do you understand the things that youve been seein
Am
Come on, come on, come on
F           Dm                               Am
Do you understand the things that youve been dreamin
F             Dm                 Am
Come a little closer, then youll see
F             Dm                 Am
Come a little closer, then youll see
