[Chorus]

Uptown girl
F#m7                         G#m7
    She's been living in her uptown world
A            B     A     E
 I bet she's never had a backstreet guy
F#m7                      G#m7
    I bet her momma never told her why
A          B   A
 I'm gonna try for an
E
Uptown girl
F#m7                         G#m7
    She's been living in her white bread world
A           B  A        E
 As long as anyone with hot blood can
F#m7                            G#m7
    And now she's looking for a downtown man
A              B A
 That's what I am

[Verse 1]
C             Am7
 And when she knows what
    Dm7/A          G7
She wants from her time
C             Am7
 And when she wakes up
    Bm7b5        E7
And makes up her mind

[Pre-Chorus]
A               F#m7
 She'll see I'm not so tough
Bm7
Just because
B7
I'm in love with an

[Chorus]
E
Uptown girl
F#m7                              G#m7
    You know I've seen her in her uptown world
A              B     A      E
 She's getting tired of her high class toys
F#m7                              G#m7
    And all her presents from her uptown boys
A            B     A
 She's got a choice

[Interlude]
G             A               F#              Bm      A
 Whoo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-oah
G             A               F#              B
 Whoo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-oah

[Bridge]
E
Uptown girl
F#m7                           G#m7
    You know I can't afford to buy her pearls
A          B       A       E
 But maybe someday when my ship comes in
F#m7                               G#m7
    She'll understand what kind of guy I've been
A              B  A
 And then I'll win

[Verse 2]
C               Am7
 And when she's walking
      Dm7/A      G7
She's looking so fine
C               Am7
 And when she's talking
       Bm7b5           E7
She'll say  that she's mine

[Pre-Chorus]
A               F#m7
 She'll see I'm not so tough
Bm7
Just because
B7
I'm in love with an
