[F]   [C/E]     [Dm]    [Dm/C]      [A#]    [F/A]     [G7/B]      [C7]  
[F]   I've had enough of [C/E]danger
[Dm]   And people on the s[Dm/C]streets
[A#]   I'm looking out for a[F/A]angels
[G7/B]   Just trying to find some [C7]peace
[F]   Now I think it's [C/E]time
[C#º]   That you let me [Dm]know  [Dm/C]    
[A#]   So if you love me, [F/A]  say you love me
[G7/B]   But if you don't just [C7]let me go
[F]   'Cos teacher[C/E]teacher    there are things
[Dm]   That I don't want to [Dm/C]learn and
[A#]   The last one I h[F/A]had made me c[G7/B]cry     [C7]  
   So I don't want to learn [F]to
   Hold you, touch you.[C/E]you....   [C#]   
   Think that you're [Dm]mine   [Dm/C]    
   Because it [A#]ain't no joy   [F/A]   
   For an [G7/B]uptown boy
   Whose [A#]teacher has told him good-b[F]good-bye,
good-b[A#/F]good-bye, good-by[F]good-bye
   When you were just a s[C/E]stranger
[Dm]   And I just at your [Dm/C]feet
[A#]   I didn't feel the d[F/A]danger
   [G7/B]Now I feel the [C7]heat
[F]   That look in your [C/E]eyes
[C#]   Telling me [Dm]no   [Dm/C]    
   So you [A#]think that you love me
   [F/A]Know that you need me
[G7/B]   I wrote the song
   I know it's wrong
   [C7]Just let me go...
[F]   And teacher.[C/E]teacher...there are things
[Dm]   That I don't want to [Dm/C]learn and
[A#]   The last one I h[F/A]had made me c[G7/B]cry     [C7]  
   So I don't want to learn [F]to
   Hold you, touch you [C/E]      [C#º]   
   Think that you're [Dm]mine   [Dm/C]    
   Because it [A#]ain't no joy   [F/A]   
   For an [G7/B]uptown boy
  [A#] Whose teacher has told him[F]him good-bye,
good-b[A#/F]good-bye, good-by[F]good-bye
[F]   [C/E]     [Dm]    [Dm/C]      [A#]    [F/A]     [G7/B]      [C7]  
[F]   [C/E]     [Dm]    [Dm/C]      [A#]    [F/A]     [G7/B]      [C7]  
So when you [A#]say that you need me  [F/A]   
That you'll never leave me  [G7/B]    
I know you're wrong
You're not that strong
[C7]Let me go
[F]  And teacher.[C/E]teacher...There are things
[Dm]That I still have to [Dm/C]learn
[A#]But the one thing I[F/A]I have is my [G7/B]pride  [C7]  
Oh so I don't want to learn t[F]to
Hold you, touch yo[C/E]you     [C#]   
Think that you're m[Dm]mine    [Dm/C]    
Because there a[A#]ain't no joy   [F/A]   
For an [G7/B]uptown boy
Who [A#]just isn't willing to t[F]try
I'm so [A#/F]cold ins[F]inside
[A#/F]Maybe just one more t[F]try
