Otis Clay, The Only Way Is Up (1980)
Key: :[C] (w: George Jackson, Johnny Henderson) (BPM: 128)
INTRO: [C5] [F/C]
VERSE 1:
[C5] We’ve been broken down, to the
[F/C] lowest turn
And
[C5] being on the bottom line,
[F/C] sure ain't no fun
But if
[C5] we should be evicted
[F/C] from our homes
We'll just
[C5] move somewhere else, and
[F/C] still carry on
PRE-CHORUS:
Oh,
[C] (hold on), hold on,
[E] (hold on),
[F] hold on,
[F/G] ohh-oh
Oh,
[C] (hold on), hold on,
[E] (hold on),
[F] hold on,
[F/G] ohh-oh
CHORUS:
The only way is
[C] up,
[E] baby, for
[F] you and me
[F/G] now
The only way is
[C] up,
[E] baby, for
[F] you and me
[F/G] now
VERSE 2:
Now
[C5] we may not know, huh, where our next
[F/C] meal is coming from
But with
[C5] you by my side, I'll
[F/C] face what is to come
Aah,
[C5] boy I want to thank you, yeah for
[F/C] loving me this way
Things may
[C5] be a little hard now, but we'll
[F/C] find a brighter day
REPEAT PRE-CHORUS:
