[Dm] [Bb] [Eb]
Verse 1: John Legend
[Dm]All this trouble in this here town
[Dm]All this shit going d[Gm]down
When will they [Eb]focus, [Bb]on this?
[Dm]Streets ride up with the TV crews
Look ma, we on the news
But [Gm]they didn't no[Eb]notice, be[Bb]before this
They float above the c[Gm]city lights
Forget the truth, in[Dm]inhale the lies
[Bb]Just enjoy the s[Eb]show
They s[Gm]see us reaching for the sky
Ju[Bb]Just ignore that you survive
 
Chorus: John Legend
[Bb]Maybe we should go [Ebm]
[Bb]Go to the penthouse [Gm]floor (let's go, let's go, let's g[F]go)
[F]Go to the penthouse f[Eb]floor (let's go, let's go, let's [F]go)
Let's ride the el[Bb]elevator, they can't keep us out no mo[Gm]more
Go to the penthouse f[Eb]floor (let's go, let's go, let's go)

[F] [Dm]
Verse 2: John Legend
[Dm]All that bubbly, all that wine
Oh man, look at the times
Didn't they no[Ab]notice, n[Bb]notice?
Only future [Dm]I can see, ain't what it used to be
And I didn't kn[Eb]know this, I didn't kn[Bb]know this
[Bb]Once you're above the city lights
Won't want to spend another night, do[Eb]down there on your own
[Gm]The whole world on di[Bb]display for us
[F]The altitude is [Gm]dangerous, but w[Bb]we ain't going home
 
Chorus: John Legend
Go to the penthouse fl[Bb]floor (let's go, let's go, let's go)
Go to the penthouse flo[Eb]floor (let's go, let's go, let's go)

Verse 3: Chance The Rapper
I heard this old joke once, it was like, uh
[F]Knock knock, [Bb]who there, it's us, us who?
Just us, who dis? Just p[Bb]playin'
Just me, new phone, new hair, new era
I'm in the penthouse, baby
[Bb]Handpicked from bad apples and bad [Dm]eggs
Held back, I had to grab crab legs
[Bb]And then there were only but a few
[Ab]Conversations held with pat[Bb]patience, what a party, what a view
What a d[F]dress, what a song
What a bea[Bb]beautiful time
My [F]folks downstairs still [Bb]waitin' in line
They never been in these rooms
Never stayed with these folks
[F]Never laughed at the news, never h[Bb]hated these jokes
[Cm]So as I fly in my suit, in a group, und[Dm]undercover
Forcin' a new smile, he te[Gm]tells me another
He said "What happened to the boy that cl[Bb]climbed up the trunk?"
Then he pushed me off the top and said "Jump, nigga, jump!"
 
Bridge: John Legend
[Bb]Oh don’t bring me down I need a roo[Bb]room up in the clouds
I wanna g[Eb]get there babe, I wanna el[Bb]elevate
[Bb]Oh my favorite mix, a little ig[Gm]ignorance and bliss
In the pen[Eb]penthouse babe, go to the pe[Bb]penthouse
 
[Chorus:johnlegend]
Go to the penthouse fl[Bb]floor (let's [Gm]go, let's go, let's go)
[F]Go to the penthouse flo[Eb]floor (let's go, let's go, let's go)
Let's ride the elev[Bb]elevator, it's what we've been waiting f[Cm]for
We'll tear down those p[Ab]p
enthouse doors (let's go, let's go, let's go)
Those penthouse d[Eb]doors
We'll tear do[Gb]down the penth[Bb]penthouse doors (let's go, let's go, let's go)
Baby, I'm in the penthouse f[Bb]floor
[Eb]Baby, let's ri[Ab]ride the elevato[Bb]elevator
Til we can rise some more
Go to the penthouse f[Eb]floor, penthouse
floor (let's go, let's go, let's go)
