"Close to Me"

Ok, I wasn't able to find "useful" chords for this song so I came up with my own. I'm
about 90% sure that this is the right key. You can experiment with this but this songs
right on the money. It's two guitars so find yourself a partner and get crackin'! Please
leave good rating. Thanks.

I suspect you already know how to clap. Well, that should work for just acoustic. I hope
found it helpful.
