SKEETER DAVIS - Ladder Of Success

From the Album "Let Me Get Close to You (RCA Victor) (1964)

(Keith Colley - Nancie Mantz - tabbed by M. Otai)

Nothing can stop him now no one can top him now
I guess I'll have to let him go
Up, up, up, the ladder of success (up, up, up, up.)

E MajorE    A augmentedA    BB    E MajorE       A augmentedA   BB
Once he let me share his dreams
E MajorE         A augmentedA   BB   E MajorE       A augmentedA   BB
But now that they come true it seems
E MajorE        F# minorF#m       G minorGm         A augmentedA
He doesn't want my love I guess look there goes my happiness
         E MajorE A augmentedA BB
They're climbin' up up up the ladder of success

E MajorE
(The ladder of success.)

E MajorE      A augmentedA    BB     E MajorE       A augmentedA   BB
Things are like he said they'd be
E MajorE       A augmentedA   BB    E MajorE       A augmentedA   BB
I thought his plans included me
E MajorE        F# minorF#m     G minorGm             A augmentedA
He forgot his words of love fame is all he's thinking of
    E MajorE A augmentedA   BB          E MajorE
A augmentedA going up up up up the ladder of success
E7E7
(The ladder of success.)

A augmentedA                  E MajorE
I liked him better in his white dungarees
A augmentedA         F#F#       BB
When he was all mine with patches on his knees
(With patches on his knees)

E MajorE         A augmentedA   BB     E MajorE    A augmentedA  BB
When his name went up in lights
E MajorE         A augmentedA   BB     E MajorE    A augmentedA  BB
All I got were lonely nights.

E MajorE          F# minorF#m
He doesn't want my love I guess
G minorGm          A augmentedA
Look there goes my happiness
     E MajorE  A augmentedA  BB
A augmentedA goin' up up up up the ladder of success
(Climbin' up whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa...)
