Intro:             

Verse 1:                         
         How can I think I'm standing strong, 
                                     
         Yet feel the air beneath my feet? 
                        /     
         How can happiness feel so wrong? 
                                  
         How can misery feel so sweet?   
         
 Verse 2:                        
         How can you let me watch you sleep, 
                                         
         Then break my dreams the way you do? 
                           /  
         How can I have got in so   deep? 
                                   
         Why did I fall in love with you?
	  
Chorus:                                                           
         This is the closest thing to crazy I have ever been 
                  
         Feeling twenty-two, acting seventeen, 
                                                  
         This is the nearest thing to crazy I have ever known, 
                        
         I was never crazy on my own... 
                                                     
         And now I know, that there's a link between the two, 
                                                 /G#      
         Being close to craziness and being close to you.
                                                       
Verse 3:                         
         How can you make me fall a---part 
                                        
         Then break my fall with loving lies? 
                      /              
         It's so easy to break a heart; 
                                                  
         It's so easy to close your eyes. 

Verse 4:                         
         How can you treat me like a child 
                                      
         Yet like a child I yearn for you? 
                      /              
         How can anyone feel so wild? 
                             
         How can anyone feel so blue?

         This is the closest thing to crazy I have ever been 
                  
         Feeling twenty-two, acting seventeen, 
                                                  
         This is the nearest thing to crazy I have ever known, 
                        
         I was never crazy on my own... 
                                                     
         And now I know, that there's a link between the two,
