Stand Too Close

Chords
pin

A               E             D
If I stand too close I might fall in
            A       E         D
But if I?m too far gone I?ll never win
         A        E      D                            
If you believe in me I might just want 
              Gbm        E    D
to spend some time with you again
      A       E         D
I?m afraid I tend to disappear 
         A       E          D
Into an anxious state when you draw near 
             A     E         D
There is no reasoning it?s quite a silly thing 
             Gbm       E         D
But it?s the way I?ve been for years 
           A     E       D
So I will understand if you don?t stay 
              A         E                 D
They say I?m great at first but then the magic fades 
          A    E      D
Into an awful you of dismal views 
     Gbm         E    D
and pessimistic attitude 

D          A        D       E      D
All this distance years of sweet resistance 
D         A     G               D
Swirling over head like angry clouds of discontent 
       
A,E,D 3x
Gbm,E,D 
        A      E     D
I have apologised a billion times 
                A       E         D
When I?ve gone off the wall like Busta Rhymes 
               A      E          D
And pulled a stupid stunt that left you thinking 
           Gbm        E        D
there was something wrong with me 
                 A          E      D
you?ve thrown a few choice phrases at my way 
            A          E      D
And I?ve ignored them all as best I could 
             A    E         D
Except that tiny bit how I just can?t commit 
               Gbm      E        D
There is some truth in what you say 

D          A        D       E      D
All this distance years of sweet resistance 
D         A     G               D
Swirling over head like angry clouds of discontent 

       A        E       D
If I stand too close I might fall in 
            A       E          D
But if I?m too far gone I?ll never win 
        A         E     D
If you believe in me I might just want 
              Gbm       E     D
To spend some time with you again 
             Gbm        E    D
I spent some time with you again 

A,E,D 3x
Gbm,E,D 

     A         E        D
If I stand too close I might fall in 
            A       E          D
But if I?m too far gone I?ll never win 
         A        E      D 
If you believe in me I might just want
              Gbm        E    A
To spend some time with you again
