Biography:
Alexander George "Alex" Clare (born 14 September 1985) is a British singer and songwriter from south-west London now living in north-west London, UK. The Too Close Songfacts says that he took up the trumpet and drums as a youngster, but as he grew older he graduated to guitar-based songwriting, playing open-mike nights with original material. Clare dated Amy Winehouse for a year during these early days, after meeting her during a performance at The Hawley Arms in Camden, North London.

-beginning-
-1st Verse- (strum once on these)
Am Am. C. C
Relax My Beloved, don't worry for me.
Em Em. G. G
Don't shed a tear for me, always be near for me.
Am. Am. C. C
Be comforted my love, don't bow your head for me.
Em Em. G. G
Promise you'll smile for me, don't ever cry for me.
-Pre-Chorus- (still only strum once)

You know these walls, they may fall down,
Em. G

At heights higher you'd imagine me too.

Am. C. Em
A thousand times before.
Am. C.

Em. G. Am. C. Em (4 strums, last one slow)
Shout as you walk out the door.
-2nd verse- (strum full out)
Am. C. Em. G
Be still my heart, I'm only a moment away
Am. C
In the next room, or at the break
Em. G
Of day.
Am. C
And I will walk, once again
Em. G
See your face again.
Am. C. Em. G
And I'd hear every word you'd have to say.
-chorus- (Pay attention: different the second time!)
Am. C. Em. G
Then maybe again we will weep like we've done
Am. C. Em
A thousand times before
Am. C
But don't turn your back on me,
Em. C. Em
Or shout as you walk out the door, no no no no
Am. C. Em. C
Then maybe again we will weep like we've done a
