I just heard this song and couldn't find chords for it, so I decided to give it a try.
For the drum effect on the verses, pick the A & D strings (A A D A A D rep.). It doesn't
sound exactly like the drums (it couldn't:), but it's close enough to play as you sing
it. Comment and rate please! God Bless and happy playing!
Closer to Your Heart by Natalie Grant
Verse 1:
(drum effect)
Here I am once again
Crying out on the floor.
Trying to make sense
Of this emptiness, once more
I can't do this on my own.
I'm in too deep,
I should have known.
I know You made me for
So much more than this
Chorus:
Em
I've been running so fast
A7
Trying to get back to the start
Em
I've been holding so tight,
A7
But it all just comes apart.
EmD
Pull me in, Break me down,
EmD
Make me new and bring me
EmDDDDD
Closer to Your heart, heart, heart, heart, heart x2
Verse 2:
(drum effect again:)
Help me be unafraid,
Find my place where You are.
Oh, You've always been enough,
You're the light in the dark.
Afraid of giving up control,
You are there, but I let go.
You're taking this brokenness,
Making it beautiful.
Chorus:
Em
I've been running so fast
A7
Trying to get back to the start
Em
I've been holding so tight,
A7
But it all just comes apart.
EmD
Pull me in, Break me down,
EmD
Make me new and bring me
EmDDDDD
Closer to Your heart, heart, heart, heart, heart
Bridge:
EmA7
Oh oh, make me come clean
EmA7
Oh oh, You're all I need
EmDDD
Oh oh, bring me closer to Your heart, heart, heart.
EmDDDDD
Closer to Your heart, heart, heart, heart, heart,
Chorus:
Em
I've been running so fast
A7
Trying to get back to the start
Em
I've been holding so tight,
A7
But it all just comes apart.
EmD
Pull me in, Break me down,
EmD
Make me new and bring me
EmDDDDD
Closer to Your heart, heart, heart, heart, heart
