[Intro]
D G D G D
[Verse]
D
I used to kiss Maxine through the front door screen
G D
Standin' on her mama's steps
And if her daddy hadn't come along and run me off
G D
I know I'd have never left
Bm F#7
It's a cryin' shame but that's they way it was
G A
Something always there to separate us
G D
Well I tried not to let it show
G D
But everyone seemed to know
Bm
There's something bet ween
A D
Me and Max ine
[Chorus] x2
D
She used to wave at me from across the street
G D
Through her bedroom window every night
She was almost close enough for me to touch
G D
But I still couldn't hold her tight
Bm F#7
That's how it's been right from the start
G A
Always something there to keep us apart
[Verse]
Bm D
All the things that came bet ween us
G D
Couldn't change a thing
Bm
Now we're to gether
D
And that's how we're gonna stay
Bm
'Cause our love just grows
G A
A little more with every day
[Outro]
G D
No I'm never gonna let her go
G D
'Cause in my heart I know
Bm A
There's something bet ween
G D
Oh I just want to hold her cl ose
G D
'Cause in my heart I know

There's something bet ween

There's something bet ween
