Closest Thing to Heaven by Tears for Fears Verse 1: Em2 Twenty eight days of rain, Flash floods in February, Back in our boats again, Bath water and the baby. Em2 What am I gonna do ? There's been a lot of drinking, Looking at ghosts of you, While all the world is sinking. Ten thousand miles into the atmosphere, My body shakes, Is there a welcome here ? Refrain : (2) - (2) Closest thing to heaven (2) How do you do it ? (2) (7) Closest thing to heaven, heaven. Verse 2 (Repeat Verse 1 Chords) : Throw you arms round the world, Make love your destination, Here we go boys and girls, Act like a generation, Give me that ball and chain, By now it must be hurting Dragging your feet again,Just like a beast of burden. When one and one and one and one make two I know I'm high because I've captured you, yeah Refrain : Closest thing to heaven Yeah, it's you Closest thing to heaven, heaven Bridge: Look the world right in the eye Eat the countries that are making billions Sweet as homemade apple pie Saved by crumbs for all the starving millions, yeah Closest thing to heaven Refrain (ad lib) : - (2) - (2) Closest thing to heaven How do you do it?
