C    F  G

Verse:
          C        F         G
I've been known to think too much
    C                         F         G
Get caught up in planning and choosing
         C            F          G
I've sat down with my head in my hand
          C                F  G
Trying to lose the fear of losing

Verse:
        G        F
But you can't go back
           Em
And you're never the same
    F                       G
And love's left its mark on you
   F              Em                  F
Whether stronger, bitter or better or wiser
               G
It's all up to you

Take one step, a little bit closer

Verse:
       F
I woke up
          Em
Yesterday morning
      F                        G
I was smiling, I was smiling wide
            F               Em
I heard wild geese calling, I called back
    F                           G
And looked into your steady eyes saying

Chorus:
N.C.  C          F          G  C    F
Take one step, a little bit closer
G     C          F          G  C    F G
Take one step, a little bit closer

Verse:
                   F           G
I've been known to howl at the moon
     C                 F     G
Over 15th street until dawn
         C          F        G               C     F
Pace the floor when love had slipped and had gone

Verse:
G       F            Em
But I know now there is no pretending
    F              G
The love in my life isn't ending
      F         Em
And I know that something has changed
    F                     G
I'm back on my feet again

Chorus:
N.C.  C          F          G  C    F
Take one step, a little bit closer
G     C          F          G  C    F
Take one step, a little bit closer

Verse:
        G        F
But you can't go back
      Em
Truly never the same
    F                       G
And love's left its mark on you
   F              Em                  F
Whether stronger, bitter or better or wiser
               G
It's all up to you

            F          G  C
Take one, a little bit closer
  F          G  C
A little bit closer
  F          G  C
A little bit closer
