Chorus
Go on and [Em]close your [Em]eyes, (go on) [Em]imagine me [Em]there
She got [A]similar [A]features, with [A]longer [A]hair
and if [Em]that's what it [Em]takes to [Em]get you [Em]through
A A* C
go on and close your eyes, it shouldn't bother you
(Em) (G)
Verse 1
[G]you never had to wait for nothing in your life
I guess [Bm]wanting you must have been a steel blue knife
and when [G]night after night the scent of passion would linger
you [Bm]had to have the jewels wrapped around your finger
now you keep [C]running down the road in your [D]midnight state of mind
[C]curiosity kills if you [B7]can't read the signs
Verse 2
[G]dancing with the ?wall made you bitter sweet
there ain't [Bm]much you can do when they just lay it at your feet
but could you [G]tell by the song I wanted to be the one
did you [Bm]listen again when the damage was done
now the [C]paint's still wet in your [D]do-it-by-number dream
were you gonna [C]tell me how it felt, will you [B7]tell me what it means
Bridge
[C] was it [D]want with no [Em]desire
[C] was it [D]smoke with no [Em]fire
did I [A7]say it doesn't rip me apart, I lied
[B7] I'm sorry dear, my ha-a-a-a-a-ands are ...
[Em] [A]

[Em] [A+8] [A]
