G7 G6 The breath of the morning I keep forgetting Cm/G G The smell of the warm summer air I live in a town where you can't smell a thing You watch your feet for cracks in the pavement Up above aliens hover Making home movies for the folks back home Of all these weird creatures who lock up their spirits Drill holes in themselves and live for their secrets Chorus: F C G They're all uptight, uptight Uptight, uptight Uptight, uptight I wish that they'd swoop down in a country lane Late at night when I'm driving Take me on board their beautiful ship Show me the world as I'd love to see it I'd tell all my friends but they'd never believe me They'd think that I'd finally lost it completely I'd show them the stars and the meaning of life They'd shut me away but I'd be alright, alright I'm alright, alright Chorus: I'm just uptight, uptight Uptight, uptight Uptight, uptight Uptight, uptight Uptight You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsC Cm F G G6 G7 Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
