	        (E7)         A     E7          G/B      Em7 
It's not the pale moon that excites me, 
 
A     D             Fdim      Dm  A  F#7  Bm7/5-  E7 
That thrills and delights me, oh, no ? 
 
              Bm7/5-   E7      A    F#7   Bm7/5-   E7 
It's just the near - ness of you. 
 
 
(E7)      A     E7        G/B      Em7 
It isn't your sweet conversation 
 
A     D             Fdim    Dm  A  F#7  Bm7/5-  E7 
That brings this sensation, oh, no ? 
 
              Bm7/5-   E7      A    D9   A 
It's just the near - ness of you. 
 
 
Bridge: 
 
                  Fdim 
When you're in my arms, 
 
                   A        A7 
And I feel you so close to me, 
 
        D       F#7         Bm7  G7  E7 
All my wildest dreams come true. 
 
 
 
(E7)       A     E7         G/B      Em7 
I need no soft lights to enchant me, 
 
A     D        Fdim      Dm   A  F#7  Bm7/5-  E7 
If you'll only grant me the right 
 
            Bm7/5-    F#     Bm 
To hold you ever so tight, 
 
      Bm7/5-        E7     E7/6 
And to feel in the night 
 
     E7   Bm7/5- E7  A    D    Dm   A 
The near - ness of you.
