[Strophe]
Am 
Baby 
                              G 
I get so scared inside, and I don't really understand 
      F                                Am 
Is it love that's on my mind, or is it fantasy 
Am 
Heaven 
                                    G 
Is in the palm of my hand, and it's waiting here for you 
        F                                 Am 
What am I supposed to do with a childhood tragedy
[Refrain]
F                           Am 
      If I close my eyes forever 
F                          Am 
      Will it all remain unchanged 
F                           Am 
      If I close my eyes forever 
F                            G 
      Will it all remain the same...
[Strophe]
Am 
Sometimes 
  
It's hard to hold on 
           G 
So hard to hold on to my dreams 
         F 
It isn't always what is seems 
                     Am 
When you're face to face with me 
              Am 
You're like a dagger 
                          G 
And stick me in the heart 
  
And taste the blood from my blade 
    F 
And when we sleep, would you shelter me 
        Am 
In your warm and darkened grave
[Refrain]
F                           Am 
      If I close my eyes forever 
F                          Am 
      Will it all remain unchanged 
F                           Am 
      If I close my eyes forever 
F                            G 
      Will it all remain the same...
[Pont]
Bb 
    Will you ever take me 
Gm                            Dm   C 
    No, I just can't take the pain 
Bb 
    But would you ever trust me 
Gm                          Dm     A7 
    No, I'll never feel the same...   Ohh...

[Strophe]
Am                       G/A 
     I know I've been so hard on you 
F/A                       Am 
     I know I've told you lies 
Am                        G/A 
     If I could have just one more wish 
F/A                               Am 
     I'd wipe the cobwebs from my eyes
[Refrain]
F                           Am 
      If I close my eyes forever 
F                          Am 
      Will it all remain unchanged 
F                           Am 
      If I close my eyes forever 
F                            G     Em 
      Will it all remain the same...
[Outro]
Am 
Close your eyes 
G 
Close your eyes 
          F                   Am 
You gotta close you eyes for me
