...UPTIGHT (EVERYTHING'S ALRIGHT)... by Stevie Wonder ------------------------------------................. *from 'Up-Tight' (1966)* *TUNE DOWN A HALF STEP* (Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb) Intro: G F/G (x3) Chorus 1:

^G Baby,^F/G ev'rything is all right, ^Guptight; ^F/Gout of sight. ^G Baby,^F/G ev'rything is all right, ^Guptight; ^F/Gout of sight.

Verse 1:

I'm a ^Gpoorman's son, from across the ^F/Grailroad tracks, The ^Gonly shirt I own is ^F/Ghangin' on my back. But ^GI'm the envy of every ^F/Gsingle guy, Since ^GI'm the apple of ^F/Gmy girl's eye. When ^Gwe go out stepping on the ^F/Gtown, for a while, My ^Gmoney's low, and my ^F/Gsuit's out of style.

Bridge 1:

But it's ^Gall right, if my ^F/Gclothes aren't new, ^G Out of sight, because my ^F/Gheart is true. She says...

Chorus 2:

^G Baby,^F/G ev'rything is all right, ^Guptight; ^F/Gout of sight. ^G Baby,^F/G ev'rything is all right, ^Guptight; ^F/Gout of sight.

Verse 2:

She's a ^Gpearl of a girl, I guess that's ^F/Gwhat you might say, I ^Gguess her folks brought her ^F/Gup that way. The ^Gright side of the tracks, she was ^F/Gborn and raised, In a ^Ggreat big old house full of ^F/Gbutlers and maids.

Bridge 2:

^G No one, is ^F/Gbetter than I, ^G I know; I'm just an ^F/Gaverage guy.

Verse 3:

No ^Gfootball hero, or ^F/Gsmooth Don Juan, Got ^Gempty pockets, you see; I'm a ^F/Gpoor man's son. Can't ^Ggive her the things that ^F/Gmoney can buy, But I'll ^Gnever, never make my ^F/Gbaby cry.

Bridge 3:

And it's ^Gall right, what ^F/GI can't do, ^G Out of sight, because my ^F/Gheart is true. She says...

Chorus 3:

^G Baby,^F/G ev'rything is all right, ^Guptight; ^F/Gout of sight. ^G Baby,^F/G ev'rything is all right, ^Guptight; ^F/Gout of sight. She says...

Coda:

^G Baby,^F/G ev'rything is all right, ^G Uptight;^F/G ah hah hah, hah hah, yeah. She says... ^G Baby,^F/G ev'rything is all right, ^Guptight; ^F/Gout of sight. ^G Baby,^F/G ev'rything is all right, ^Guptight; ^F/Gout of sight.
