D
Uptown girl
Em                       F#m
She's been living in her uptown world
G          A           D
I bet she never had a back street guy
Em                   F#m
I bet her mama never told her why
G           A        D
I'm gonna try for an uptown girl
Em                        F#m
She's been living in her white bread world
G          A            D
As long as anyone with hot blood can
Em                          F#m
And now she's looking for a downtown man
G            A
That's what I'm

Chorus:
A#            Gm             Cm             F
And when she knows what she wants from her time
A#            Gm           Cm           D
And when she wakes up and makes up her mind
G              Em
She'll see I'm not so tough
Am           A
Just because I'm in love with an

You know I've seen her in her uptown world
She's getting tired of her high class toys
And all her presents from her uptown boys
She's got a choice

Ooh
Ooh

Uptown girl
You know I can't afford to buy her pearls
But maybe someday when my ship comes in
She'll understand what kind of guy I've been
And then I'll win

Chorus:
And when she's walking
She's looking so fine
And when she's talking
She'll say that she's mine
She'll say I'm not so tough
Just because I'm in love

Em                       F#m
She's been living in her white bread world
G          A            D
As long as anyone with hot blood can
Em                          F#m
And now she's looking for a downtown man
G            A
That's what I’m

E         F#m
Uptown girl
                G#m
She's my uptown girl
A                B
You know I'm in love with an
E         F#m
Uptown girl
          G#m
My uptown girl
      A          B
You know I'm in love with an - x2
