G C
Come a little closer, baby
G C
I feel like layin' you down
G C
On a bed of sweet surrender
G C
Where we can work it all out
Em C
There ain't nothin' that love can't fix
Em C
Girl, it's right here at our fingertips
[ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/d/dierks-bentley/374554.html ]
G C
So come a little closer baby,
G C
I feel like layin' you down
G C
Come a little closer, baby
G C
I feel like lettin' go
G C
Of everything that stands between us
G C
And the love we used to know
Em C
I wanna touch you like a cleansing rain
Em C
Let it wash all the hurt away
G C
So come a little closer baby
G
I feel like lettin' go
C
If there's still a chance
Then take my hand
G
And we'll steal away
C
Off into the night
'till we make things right
Am D
The suns gonna rise on a better day
GUITAR SOLO (pretty much the same as the intro)
G C
Come a little closer baby
G C
I feel like strippin' it down
G C
Back to the basics of you and me
G C
And what makes the world go round
Em C
Every inch of you against my skin
Em C
I wanna be stronger than we've ever been
G C
So come a little closer baby
G C
I feel like strippin' it down
G C
Come a little bit closer baby
G C
Just a little bit closer baby
G C
Come a little bit closer baby
G C
I feel like layin' you down
