Don't Just Stand There:Patty Duke.

Records in 1965. (Probably the best
teen-angst song from the sixties.
I was always a big fan of her singing
and acting.)

Gm7               Cm
Please don't just stand there, come and 
A              D
kiss me like before.

Am7    D
at the floor.

If something is wrong, give me just one little

Life was so sweet, until tonight.

breaks in two.

Knowing I care, how can you be so unkind?

If it's a game, I don't want to play it.

And if it's goodbye..why can't you just say it?
