      D                                       C
Listen, I walk the city at midnight with the past
strapped to my back
D                                   C
Lately I can't get no sleep, I'm a real insomniac
D                                     C
I was chatting with a ghost, wants a hundred
and a match
           D                                  C
Says, "I know you got the money, where's the man
behind the mask?"

Chorus:
Bm            Am       G
I wanna get close to you
Bm            Am       G
I wanna get close to you
Bm            Am       G
I wanna get close to you

I walk this way a million times
With a blindfold on my eyes
It's a nighttime business
With an angel in disguise
I bargained with the devil
I need heaven for one night
I can't stand this chaos
It's churnin' up my mind

Chorus:
I wanna get close to you
I wanna get close to you
I wanna get lost in you

D            C                 G
Talk to me, pour your secrets out
D               C            G
Tell me I'm the only man you ever dream about
D                C                   G
Talk to me, why don't you scream it out? Yeah
D                   C               G
Tell me that you'd rather die than live without,
live without me

Chorus:
I wanna get close to you
I wanna get close to you, yeah, come on

Talk to me, pour your secrets out, yeah
Tell me I'm the only man you ever dream about
Talk to me, why don't you scream it out?
Tell me that you'd rather die than live without,
live without me

Chorus:
D C            G
I  wanna get close to you (Yeah, yes, I do)
D C            G
I  wanna get close to you (Oh, oh, close to you)
D C            G
I  wanna get high on you (High on you)
D C           G
I  wanna get lost in you (Okay, lost, lost,
lost in you)
D C       G
I  wanna dive into you (I, yeah)
D C            G
I  wanna get close to you
