CAPO: 3rd FRET

INTRO:
G+G Am7Am7 D MajorD G+G  G+G Am7Am7 D MajorD G+G

VERSE
   G+G
It started out in innocence
  Am7Am7
The way that most things do
G+G          D MajorD
A augmentedA thousand people crammed in one place
 C majorC           G+G
But the only face was you

G+G
I grabbed your hand and we raced out
 Am7Am7
Hardly said a word
 G+G         D MajorD
I`d only seen you for a minute
 C majorC          G+G
But I was round in third


PRE-CHORUS:
    B minorBm
And we traded on our backgrounds
 C majorC
You mentioned I seemed shy
     D MajorD
Then you laughed

CHORUS:
         G+G
And said I`m an uptown, uptempo woman
     Am7Am7    D MajorD    G+G E minor 7Em7 Am7Am7 D7D7 G+G E minor 7Em7 A minorAm D MajorD G+G
You`re a downtown, downbeat guy


VERSE:
 G+G
Within a week I`d moved in
  Am7Am7
At your uptown, east side place
 D MajorD               C majorC        G+G
We`d make love for hours on a bed of silk and lace

   G+G
And she would get up early
 Am7Am7
Come home late at night
 D MajorD
She`d have important busainess
     C majorC    D MajorD      G+G  G+G
But my prospects all seemed slight


PRE-CHORUS:
 B minorBm
Tired on some evenings
 C majorC         D MajorD
She`d get mad and cry


CHORUS:
    G+G
I`m a lit uptown, uptempo woman
     Am7Am7    D MajorD    G+G E minor 7Em7 Am7Am7 D7D7 G+G E minor 7Em7 A minorAm D MajorD G+G
You`re a downtown, downbeat guy


VERSE:
 G+G
Well the romance soon was over
Am7Am7
And lust was turning thin
 D MajorD
And I soon began to realise
   C majorC       G+G
The mess I`d gotten in

 G+G
But as always happens
 Am7Am7
You`re caught in such a trap
   D MajorD
You get so used to what`s around
     C majorC     D MajorD    G+G
That you can`t find your way back


PRE-CHORUS:
   B minorBm
So I lived with this arrangement
 C majorC         D MajorD
Soon learned to despise


CHORUS:
   G+G
The uptown, uptempo woman
     Am7Am7    D MajorD    G+G E minor 7Em7 Am7Am7 D7D7 G+G E minor 7Em7 A minorAm D MajorD G+G
And the downtown, downbeat guy


VERSE:
 G+G
Then one Saturday in March
Am7Am7
I decided I would go
D MajorD
As I was going nowhere
    C majorC        D MajorD
And my mind was getting slow

G+G
So I opened all the closets
 Am7Am7
There wasn`t much to pack
D MajorD
I felt bad not telling her
    C majorC   D MajorD   G+G  G+G
That I wasn`t coming back


PRE-CHORUS:
   B minorBm
But this day she was early
 C majorC             D MajorD
She looked at me and asked why
D MajorD
I said why


OUTRO:
      G+G
You`re an uptown, uptempo woman
    Am7Am7    D7D7    G+G E minor 7Em7 Am7Am7 D7D7
I`m a downtown, downbeat guy

      G+G
You`re an uptown, uptempo woman
    Am7Am7    D MajorD    G+G E minor 7Em7 Am7Am7
I`m a downtown, downbeat guy
 Am7Am7    D MajorD    G+G E minor 7Em7 Am7Am7 D MajorD G+G
Downtown, downbeat guy
