uptown Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Cm]He gets up each morning
And he goes downtown
Where everyone's his boss
And he's lost in an angry [Eb]land
He's a little man
[G]

[Verse 2]
But then he comes [C]uptown
Each ev'nin' to my tenement
[Am]Uptown where folks don't have
To pay much rent
And [F]when he's there with me
He can see that he's [Am]everything
Then he's [Ab]tall, he don't [Fm]crawl
He's a king
[C]

[Verse 3]
[C]Down[Cm]town he's just one of a million guys
He don't get no breaks
And he takes all they got to [Eb]give
'Cause he's got to live
[G]

[Verse 4]
But then he comes [C]uptown
Where he can hold his head up high
[Am]Uptown he knows that I am standing by
And [F]when I take his hand
There's no man who could put him [Am]down
The world [Ab]is sweet
It's at his [Fm]feet when [F]he's uptown
[C]

[Verse 5]
Whoa [Am]oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Yeah yeah, [F]yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah
[G]

[C]Uptown where he can hold
his head up high
[Am]Uptown he knows that I am standing by
And [F]when I take his hand
There's no man who could put him [Am]down
The world is [Ab]sweet, it's at his [Fm]feet
When he's [Fdim]up town[C]
