Bobby Vinton - Halfway to Paradise (1968) chords
Start Jamming...
I want to be your lover
But your friend is all [B] I'll stay
I'm [E] only half [A] to pace
[E] So near, [B] yet so far [E] away
I long for your lips to kiss my lips
But just when I [B] think they may
You leave [E] me half to [A] pace
[E] So near, [B] yet so [E] far away
[B] Being close to you is [E] almost heaven
But [B] seeing you can do [E] just so much
[B] It hurts me so to know your [E] heart's a treasure
[C#m] And that my heart [F#] is far from [A] being touched
[C] So put [F] your sweet lips close to my lips
And tell me that's where they're gonna [C] stay
Don't leave [F] me half to [A#] paradise
So [F] near, yet [C] so
[B] far [F] away
