Version 1 Version 2...UPTIGHT (EVERYTHING'S ALRIGHT)... by Stevie Wonder ------------------------------------................. *from 'Up-Tight' (1966)* *TUNE DOWN A HALF STEP* (Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb) [Intro] D C/D (x3) [Chorus 1] D C/D D C/D Baby, ev'rything is all right, uptight; out of sight. D C/D D C/D Baby, ev'rything is all right, uptight; out of sight. [Verse 1] D C/D I'm a poorman's son, from across the railroad tracks, D C/D The only shirt I own is hangin' on my back. D C/D But I'm the envy of every single guy, D C/D Since I'm the apple of my girl's eye. D C/D When we go out stepping on the town, for a while, D C/D My money's low, and my suit's out of style. [Bridge 1] D C/D But it's all right, if my clothes aren't new, D C/D Out of sight, because my heart is true. She says... [Chorus 2] D C/D D C/D Baby, ev'rything is all right, uptight; out of sight. D C/D D C/D Baby, ev'rything is all right, uptight; out of sight. [Verse 2] D C/D She's a pearl of a girl, I guess that's what you might say, D C/D I guess her folks brought her up that way. D C/D The right side of the tracks, she was born and raised, D C/D In a great big old house full of butlers and maids. [Bridge 2] D C/D No one, is better than I, D C/D I know; I'm just an average guy. [Verse 3] D C/D No football hero, or smooth Don Juan, D C/D Got empty pockets, you see; I'm a poor man's son. D C/D Can't give her the things that money can buy, D C/D But I'll never, never make my baby cry. [Bridge 3] D C/D And it's all right, what I can't do, D C/D Out of sight, because my heart is true. She says... [Chorus 3] D C/D D C/D Baby, ev'rything is all right, uptight; out of sight. D C/D D C/D Baby, ev'rything is all right, uptight; out of sight. She says... D C/D D C/D Baby, ev'rything is all right, uptight; out of sight. D C/D D C/D Baby, ev'rything is all right, uptight; out of sight. She says... [Coda] D C/D Baby, ev'rything is all right, D C/D Uptight; ah hah hah, hah hah, yeah. She says... D C/D D C/D Baby, ev'rything is all right, uptight; out of sight. D C/D D C/D Baby, ev'rything is all right, uptight; out of sight.
