One Step Up Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][D][Em][D]

[Verse 1]
[G]Woke up this morning the house was cold
[D]Checked out the furnace she wasn't burnin'
[Em]Went out and hopped in my old Ford
[D]Hit the engine but she ain't turnin'
[G]Given each other some hard lessons lately
[D]We ain't learnin'
[Em]We're the same sad [D]story that's a [G]fact
One step [A]up and two steps

[Interlude 1]
[G](back)[D][Em][D]

[Verse 2]
Bird on a [G]wire outside my motel room
[D]But he ain't singin'
[Em]Girl in white outside a church in June
[D]But the church bells they ain't ringing
[G]I'm sittin' here in this bar tonight
[D]But all I'm thinkin' is
[Em]I'm the same old story[D] same old act[G]
One step [A]up and two steps

[Interlude 2]
[G](back)[D][Em][D]

[Verse 3]
[G]It's the same thing night on night
[D]Who's wrong baby who's right
[Em]Another fight and I slam the door on
[D]Another battle in our dirty little war
[G]When I look at myself I don't see
[D]The man I wanted to be
[Em]Somewhere along the line[D]
I slipped off [G]track
I'm caught movin' one step [A]up and two steps

[Interlude 3]
[G](back)[D][Em][D]

[Verse 4]
[G]There's a girl across the bar
[D]I get the message she's sendin'
[Em]Mmm, she ain't lookin' too married
[D]And me well honey I'm pretending
[G]Last night I dreamed I held you in my arms
[D]The music was never-ending
We [Em]danced as the evening [D]sky
faded to [G]black
One step [A]up and two steps

[Outro 1]
[G](back) (One step up and two steps [D]back)
One step up and two steps [Em]back
(One step up and two steps [D]back)
One step up and two steps [G]back
[D][Em][G]

[Outro 2]
[G]Uuh...[D][Em][D]
[Repeat and fade]
