[Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
C G F
Well it’s the same thing every time I see you
C G F
All you ever talk about is you
C G F
Now I really don’t want to bore you
C G F
But it’s about time you considered me too
C G F
And the same thing applies to what we do
C G F
We always have to do what you choose
C G F
And it’s getting me down doing the same old rounds
C G F
You never take account of my views
C G
But life is running round in circles
F C G
wondering what to do
C G
Afraid to even speak
F C G
In case I offended you
C G
But now it’s got to the point where you’ll
F C G
have to choose
G
Cause you can’t stay with me if you stay like you
[Chorus]
C *
Cause your I’s are too close together, baby
F(add9)
Your I’s are too close together
C *
Your I’s are too close together, baby
F(add9)
Your I’s are too close together
C Am F G
Your Iiiiii’s are too close
C Am F G
Your Iiiiii’s are too close
C Am F G
Your Iiiiii’s are too close
C F G
Together
C Am G
Together
C F G
Together
C G
Together
[Verse 2]
C G F
There seems no point anymore in trying to reach you
C G F
Cause you only hear what you want to
C G F
But somehow I have got to get through
C G F
If things are ever gonna to improve
C G F
Now I'm not tryin to get at you or upset you
C G F
I only want us to be how we used to
C G F
There's something I must say before it's too late
C G F
Even though I know I may lose you
C G
Oh something's happened between
F C G
you and me
C G
Cause we're not the same as we
F C G
used to be
C G
And it's as simple as
F C G
Ayy Bee Cee
G
Your I's are too close and baby you can't see
[Chorus]
C *
Cause your I’s are too close together, baby
F(add9)
Your I’s are too close together
C *
Your I’s are too close together, baby
F(add9)
Your I’s are too close together
C Am F G
