Transcribed by Glenn Coggin

                     D, F#m, G, A,  (repeat throughout intro – with first line of the singing starting on the A) 

             D        F#m      G
I'm only halfway up the stairs
      A         D      F#m, G, A
Not up or down
             D          F#m   G
I'm only halfway up the stairs
         A              D          F#m, G, A
Since you let me down 
                    D     
So won't you tell me 
 F#m    G
Tell me please
                  A        D  F#m, G, A
What you're gonna do
                D        F#m       G       A            D       F#m, G, A                         
Cause you know I wouldn't be halfway with you

I don't want to seem impatient
      D
And please don't think me fast
      Cmaj7                         
but we've got something going 
         A                         A7 
And I don't want to let it pass

                    D     
So won't you tell me 
F#m     G
Tell me please
                  A        D  F#m, G, A
What you're gonna do
                D        F#m       G       A            D        F#m, G, A, (repeat to fade)
Cause you know I wouldn't be halfway with you
