Chords

I like to play the D in the vers as a Dmaj6: e|0 B|0 G|0 D|4 A|5 E|x [Verse 1]
Em    Gmaj7             Cmaj7  D
The house, it feels so empty

Em     Gmaj7       Cmaj7 D
'Cause now I live alone

Em  Gmaj7               Cmaj7      D
The kid next door keeps asking me where you've gone

      Em          Gmaj7                Cmaj7
And I tell him, I tell him you've gone home
[Chorus]
     D              Cmaj7
But when I close my eyes

         D                 Em
You're standing there, in front of me

Gmaj7           Cmaj7
When I close my eyes

       D            Em
It's almost like it used to be

Gmaj7       Cmaj7      D      Em
Then I realise you're just a ghost

Gmaj7    Cmaj7      D           Em
Maybe at most, a fragment of my mind

Gmaj7           Cmaj7 D Em
When I close my eyes
[Verse 2]
Em Gmaj7           Cmaj7  D
The days can be so lonely

Em Gmaj7           Cmaj7  D
So I stay out all night

Em Gmaj7         Cmaj7      D
My friends, they take it slowly, hmm

Em Gmaj7             Cmaj7 
I tell 'em that I'll try
[Chorus]
     D              Cmaj7
But when I close my eyes

         D                 Em
You're standing there, in front of me

Gmaj7           Cmaj7
When I close my eyes

       D            Em
It's almost like it used to be

Gmaj7      Cmaj7       D      Em
Then I realise you're just a ghost

Gmaj7    Cmaj7      D           Em
Maybe at most, a fragment of my mind

Gmaj7           Cmaj7 D Em
When I close my eyes
[Bridge]
Am
Every thought I think

D
It cuts me like a knife

Em
I just wanna bring

D
Bring me back to life

Am
Tonight, the sun will set

D
Tomorrow, when we'll rise

Em                
All that I've got left
[Chorus]
     D             Cmaj7
Is when I close my eyes

         D                 Em
You're standing there, in front of me

Gmaj7           Cmaj7
When I close my eyes

       D            Em
It's almost like it used to be

Gmaj7     Cmaj7        D      Em
Then I realise you're just a ghost

Gmaj7    Cmaj7      D           Em
Maybe at most, a fragment of my mind
[Outro]
Gmaj7           Cmaj7 D Em
When I close my eyes

Gmaj7           Cmaj7 D Em
When I close my eyes

Gmaj7           Cmaj7 D Em
When I close my eyes
