The Tips of My Fingers
Roy Clark
C G C
I reached out my arms and I touched you,
G C
With soft words I whispered your name,
F C
I held you right on the tips of my fingers,
D7 G
But that was as close as I came,
C G C
My eyes had a vision of sweet lips,
G C
Yielding beneath my command
F C
I had your love on the tips of my fingers,
D7 G
But I let it slip right through my hands,
C G C
but I let it slip right through my hands,
G C
Somebody took you when I wasn' looking,
G C
And I should have known right from the start,
F C
It' a long, long way from the tips of my fingers,
D7 G
To the love hidden deep in your heart,
C G C
To the love hidden deep in your heart.
