I Came Close So Close To Failure
       E     B7          E
I came close so close to failure 
       E        B7      E     E7
I came close to living alone
           A      E
I know the kids still love me and their mama 
                       B7        E
But I came so close to losing my home
       A          E
I felt small enough to drown in each teardrop
         F#7                  B7
But big enough to admit I was wrong
       A            E
When I think of what I've done the cheer runs through me
                         B7        E
Cause I came so close to losing my home
