[E] Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, Oh, oh, [B] oh, oh, [E] oh, oh,
Downtown [Bm] girl She's been living [E] in her uptown world
I [G#m] bet she never [E] had a back street guy [F#m] I bet her momma [E] never told her [A] why
I'm gonna [B] try [E] for an uptown girl [F#m]
She's been living [E] in her white bread [A] world
As [B] long as [E] anyone who's hot blood can
[F#m] And now she's looking [E] for a downtown man
[A] That's [G] what I [C] am
And when [Am] she knows what [Dm] she wants
From [G] her tie-on
[C] And when [Am] she wakes up [Dm] and makes up [E] her mind
[A] She'll see I'm not so [D] confused
[B] Just because I'm in love [E] with an uptown girl
[F#m] You know I've seen her [E] in her uptown world
[A] She's [B] getting tired [E] of her high-class [F#m] ties
And all the presents [E] from her uptown boys
She's [B] got a [G] choice
Oh oh [A] oh oh oh
[F#] [B]
[A] [G] [A]
[F#] Uptown [B]
[E] girl
[F#m] You know I can't [E] afford to buy her a [A] pearl
But [B] maybe someday [E] when my ship comes in
She'll understand what kind of guy I've been
[A] And [B] then I'll win
[C] And when [Am] she's walking, [Dm] she's looking [G] so fine
[Em] [C] And when [Am] she's talking, [Dm] she'll say that she's [E] mine
[A] She'll say I'm not so tough [D] just because [B] I'm in love [E] with an uptown girl
[F#m]
She's been living [E] in her white bread [A] world as [B] long as anyone [E] with a black hair
[F#m] And now she's looking [E] for a downtown [A] man, that's [B] what I am
[G] [A]
Uptown [F#] [Bm]
[A] [G] [A]
[F#] [B]
[E] girl, [F#m]
she's my [E] uptown [B] girl
You know I'm in love [E] with an uptown girl
My uptown girl
You [F#m] know I'm in [C#] love with an [E] uptown girl
