The Cure - Close To Me cover

Me playing "Close To Me" by The Cure on my Taylor acoustic. Nothing crazy. Enjoy.

For the guitarists, sorry, I don't have any tabs for it; I just arranged it this way. Basically, the chords are G-Em-D7 for the verse and C7-G for the bridge/chorus "If I had your face...". And I'm tuned down a half step. Cheers.

A little to Jason Mraz (sp?) for my taste.

@Egjahnke Fair enough, but I bet Mraz hears "A little too drewfonts for my taste," a lot.

nice cover man like it a lot. how are you tuned?

[drewfonts]

@moingbok I'm tuned to E flat (down a half step from standard tuning).

Lol your responses to your critics are great. I love the Cure, hate your version but still youre talented. Now give me a reply...btw...you seemed to have rehearsed your entrance and exit on the vid lol...take long to master?

[drewfonts]

@CaptainShamrock66 Glad you got something out of it.

Truly, my entrances and exits are naturally polished and just look well-rehearsed. Thanks for noticing. Actually, they're kind of a necessity, since I just shoot my vids on a digital camera. No director or cameramen, believe it or not.

Funny, because when I walked into the hat store, that's exactly what I asked the sales guy: "Hey, what can you show me in something pretentious and douchebaggy?"
