[Intro] e|---------------------| B|---------------------| G|---------------------| D|---------------------| A|---3-4---3-4---3-4---| E|-5-----5-----5-----5-| [Verse 1] I’ve got a girl with a record machine When it comes to rockin she’s a queen A (mute) We love to dance on a Saturday night N.C. All alone where I can hold her tight But she lives on 20th floor uptown A (mute) And the elevator has broken down During the verses the riff goes like this: e|-----------------------------------------------------| B|-----------------------------------------------------| G|-----------------------------------------------------| D|---------------------------3-4---3-4-----5-6---5-6---| A|---3-4---3-4---3-4---3-4-5-----5-------7-----7-------| E|-5-----5-----5-----5-----------------5-------------5-| [Verse 2] So I walk one two flight three flight four Five six seven flight eight flight more At 12th I’m startin’ to sag 15th floor I’m ready to drag Get to the top I’m too tired to rock [Verse 3] She called me up on the telephone Said: "Come over baby. I’m all alone." A (mute) I said: "Sorry baby. You’re mighty sweet N.C. but I’m in bed achin’ feet." This went for a couple of days A (mute) But I could not stay away [Verse 4] So I walk one two flight three flight four Five six seven flight eight flight more At 12th I’m startin’ to sag 15th floor I’m ready to drag Get to the top I’m too tired to rock [Instrumental] [Verse 5] They sent it to Chicago for repairs ’Til it’s fixed I’m usin’ the stairs I have to get there before it’s to late N.C. My baby couldn’t bear much to wait All this climbin’ is gettin’ me down A (mute) You’ll find my corpse draped over a rail [Verse 6] But I fly one two flight three flight four Five six seven flight eight flight more At 12th I’m startin’ to sag 15th floor I’m ready to drag Get to the top I’m too tired to rock
