CAPO: 3rd FRET

INTRO:
G Am7 D G   G Am7 D G

VERSE
     G
It started out in innocence
    Am7
The way that most things do
G                   D
A thousand people crammed in one place
 C                     G
But the only face was you

G
I grabbed your hand and we raced out
 Am7
Hardly said a word
 G                 D
I`d only seen you for a minute
 C                   G
But I was round in third


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


CHORUS:
                 G
And said I`m an uptown, uptempo woman
          Am7       D        G  Em7 Am7 D7  G Em7 Am D G
You`re a downtown, downbeat guy


VERSE:
 G
Within a week I`d moved in
    Am7
At your uptown, east side place
 D                             C               G
We`d make love for hours on a bed of silk and lace

     G
And she would get up early
 Am7
Come home late at night
 D
She`d have important busainess
         C        D           G    G
But my prospects all seemed slight


PRE-CHORUS:
 Bm
Tired on some evenings
 C                 D
She`d get mad and cry


CHORUS:
       G
I`m a lit uptown, uptempo woman
          Am7       D        G  Em7 Am7 D7  G Em7 Am D G
You`re a downtown, downbeat guy


VERSE:
 G
Well the romance soon was over
Am7
And lust was turning thin
 D
And I soon began to realise
     C              G
The mess I`d gotten in

 G
But as always happens
 Am7
You`re caught in such a trap
     D
You get so used to what`s around
          C          D        G
That you can`t find your way back


PRE-CHORUS:
      Bm
So I lived with this arrangement
 C                  D
Soon learned to despise


CHORUS:
     G
The uptown, uptempo woman
         Am7       D        G  Em7 Am7 D7  G Em7 Am D G
And the downtown, downbeat guy


VERSE:
 G
Then one Saturday in March
Am7
I decided I would go
D
As I was going nowhere
        C                D
And my mind was getting slow

G
So I opened all the closets
 Am7
There wasn`t much to pack
D
I felt bad not telling her
        C      D      G    G
That I wasn`t coming back


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


OUTRO:
           G
You`re an uptown, uptempo woman
       Am7       D7       G  Em7 Am7 D7
I`m a downtown, downbeat guy

           G
You`re an uptown, uptempo woman
       Am7       D        G  Em7 Am7
I`m a downtown, downbeat guy
 Am7       D        G Em7 Am7 D G
Downtown, downbeat guy
