Roger McGuinn Up To Me written by Bob Dylan
E A
Every thing went from bad to worse money never changed a thing
EDeath kept following trackin us down at Aleast I heard your bluebird
sing
Now G#msomebody's got to Eshow their hand time is but an Aenemy
A E B C#m E A E A E A *
I know you're long gone I guess it must be up to me
If I'd thEought about it I never would have done it
A
I guess I would a let it slide
E
If I'd a pay attention to what others were thinking
A
This heart inside of me would have died
G#m E
I was just too stubborn to ever be governed
A
By enforced insanity
A* E B C#m E A E A E A
Someone had to reach for the risin star I guess it was up to me
E A
Well the Union Central is pullin out and the orchids are in bloom
E A
I've only got me one good shirt left and it smells like stale perfume
G#m E A
In fourteen months I've only smiled once I didn't do it consciously
E B C#m E A E A E
ASomebody's got to find your trail and I guess it had to be up to me
E A
It was like a revelation when you betrayed me with your touch
I'd had Ejust about convinced myself that Anothing had changed that
much
The oldG#m rounder in the iEron mask he slipped me the master kAey
SomeEbody hBad to C#munlock your Eheart he Asaid it was up to Eme A E A
tell
*
Well I wEatched you slowly disappear down Ainto the officer's club I wEould have followed you in the door but I Adidn't have a ticket stub So I G#mwaited all night long till the Ebreak of day hoping one of us would get Afree When the Edawn came Bover the C#mriverE bridge I Aknew it was up to EmeA E A*
Well the Eonly decent thing I did was wAhen I worked as a postal clerk Was to hEaul your picture down off the wall Anear the cage where I use to work I was a G#mfool not to Etry to protect your idAenity You lEooked a litBtle burnedC#m out my Efriend I Athought it might be up to EmeA E A*
When I Emet somebody face to face I Ahad to remove my hat She's Eeverything I need and love but I Acan't be swayed by that It G#mfrightens me the Eawful truth how sweet life can Abe But she Eain't aB gonna C#mmake a Emove I Aguess it must be up to EmeA E A*
We hEeard the sermon on the mount and I Aknew it was too complex It didn't Eamount to anything more than what a Abroken glass reflects G#m, E A When you bite off more than you can chew you pay the penalty ESomebody's Bgot to C#mtell the Etale I Aguess it must be up to EmeA E A*
Well DEupree came a pimping tonight tAo the Thunderbird Cafe ECrystal wanted to talk to him I Ahad to look the other way Now G#mI just can't rest Ewithout your love I need your comApany But Eyou ainB't a gonna cC#mross the linEe I Aguess it must be up to EmeA E A There's a Enote left in the bottle you can Agive it to Estelle She's the Eone you've been wondering about there's Areally nothin much toWe G#mboth heard voices Efor awhile now the rest is Ahistory
ESomebody'sB got to C#mcry some Etears I Aguess it must be up to EmeA E A
