           THE UPTOWN, UNTEMPO WOMAN
         (AND THE DOWNTOWN, DOWNBEAT GUY)

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
