Desmond Dekker - Tips Of My Fingers Chords & Tabs

Tips of My fingers

Intro D# A# x2

        D#     A#         D#
I reach out my arms and I touch you. (touch you)
     D#           A#           D#
With soft words I whisper your name. (your name)
D#         A#           G#         D#
I held you right on the tips of my fingers,
      D#            A#               D#
but I let it slip a right through my hands.

   D#         A#             D#
My eyes had a vision of your sweet lips. (sweet lips)
D#       A#         D#
Yielding beneath my command (my command).
D#         A#        G#         D#
I held you up on the tips of my fingers,
      D#            A#               D#
but I let it slip a right through my hands.

   A#                     G#       D#
Oh somebody took you when I wasn't looking
    A#                   G#                   D#
And I should have known, said I know from the start
            D#         A#           G#         D#
That it's a long, long way from the tips of my fingers
      D#            A#               D#
but I let it slip a right through my hands.

    D#          A#          G#         D#
Yes I held your love on the tips of my fingers
      D#      A#                    D#
But I let you slip right through my hands.
