INTRO: Bm

Bm
He gets up each morning and he goes downtown,
                                                    D
where everyone's his boss and he's lost in an angry land..
              Gb
he's a little man..

#1.
                   B
But then, he comes uptown each evening to my tenement,
Abm
uptown where folks don't have to pay much rent.
    E                                                 Abm
And when he's there with me he can see that he's everything,
          G              Em     Dbm    B
then he's tall, he don't crawl, he's a king.

#2.
Bm
Downtown he's just one of a million guys,
                                                    D
he don't get no breaks and he takes all they got to give..
                  Gb
cause he's got to live.


CHORUS:
                  B
But then he comes uptown where he can hold his head up high,
Abm
uptown he knows that I'll be standing by.
    E                                                     Abm
And when I take his hand there's no man who could put him down.
             G                                    B
The world is sweet, it's at his feet, when he's uptown.


(INTERLUDE:) Bm D Gb


CHORUS:
                    B
Let me tell ya now, uptown where he can hold his head up high,
Abm
uptown he knows that I'll be standing by.
    E                                                     Abm
And when I take his hand there's no man who could put him down.
             G                  Em                B
The world is sweet, it's at his feet, when he's uptooooown.
