G D/F#
I've had enough of danger
Em Em/D
And people on the streets
C G/B
I'm looking out for angels
A7/4 D7
Just trying to find some peace
G D/F#
Now I think it's time
D#º Em Em/D
That you let me know
C G/B
So if you love me, say you love me
A7/4 D7
But if you don't just let me go
G D/F#
'Cos teacher there are things
Em Em/D
That I don't want to learn and
C G/B A7/4 D7
The last one I had made me cry
G
So I don't want to learn to
D/F# D#º
Hold you, touch you
Em Em/D
Think that you're mine
C G/B
Because it ain't no joy
A7/C#
For an uptown boy
C G C/G G
Whose teacher has told him good-bye, good-bye, good-bye
D/F#
When you were just a stranger
Em Em/D
And I just at your feet
C G/B
I didn't feel the danger
A7/4 D7
Now I feel the heat
G D/F#
That look in your eyes
D#º Em Em/D
Telling me no
C
So you think that you love me
G/B
Know that you need me
A7/4
I wrote the song
I know it's wrong
D7
Just let me go...
G D/F#
And teacher...
C G/B
So when you say that you need me
A7/4
That you'll never leave me
I know you're wrong
You're not that strong
D7
Let me go
G D/F#
And teacher...
A7/C#
For an uptown boy
C G
Who just isn't willing to try
C/G G
I'm so cold inside
C/G G
Maybe just one more try.
