Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Dm][F]
[C][Em][F][C][Em]

[Verse 1]
[Am]Up on the catwalk,
[Dm]a bi[Em]g wheel is spinning
An[Dm]d Dollars to Deutchmarks, and
pennies from heaven
[Am]And up on the catw[Dm]alk,
[Em]there's one hundred million
[Dm]With letters from thousands that say
``Just who are you?''
There's one thousand names [Am]that
can [Em]spring up in my mind
[Dm]But you'd call it blackmail and
that's just not my kind
And up on the catwalk,
[Em]up on the catwalk
And [Dm]I don't know why

[Verse 2]
[F]I will be there, I will be there,
I will be [C]there[F][C][Em]
[F]I will be there, I will be [C]the[Em]re

[Verse 3]
[Am]Up on the catwalk there's
[Em]street politicians
That [Dm]crawl in from Broadway,
say then who are you
And up on the catwalk [Em]there's
one thousand postcard[Dm]s
From Montevideo,
say that I'll be home soon
Get [Am]out of B[Dm]ombay [Em]and go up to Brixton A[Dm]nd look around,
to see just what is
missing
And up [Am]on the catwalk,
[Dm]girl[Em]s call for mothe[Dm]r And dream of their boyfriends

[Verse 4]
And I don't know why
[F]I will be there, I will be there,
I will be [C]there[Em][Dm][Em]
[F]I will be there, I will be [C]there
[Em]Tonigh[Am]t, under the c[Dm]rystal light[Em],
I'll [G]tell you [Am]everything [G]I n[Dm]eed
To[Am]night, under [Em]the crystal light,
sur[Dm]render [G]everything to me

[Interlude 1]
[Dm][Am][Dm][Em][Dm]
[Em][Dm]

[Verse 5]
Up on the catwalk, [Em]and
you dress in waistcoats
[Dm]And got brilliantino, and
friends of Kim Philby
You float through the night [Am]time,
[Em]like manna from [Dm]heaven
But what, what do I know,
and just what do I know
And up [Am]on the catwalk,
[Dm]in s[Em]weat that glistens
[Dm]And I don't know why and I
don't know [Am]why
I don't [Dm]know [Em]why[Dm]

[Verse 6]
[F]I will be there, I will be there,
I will be [C]there[Em]
[F]I will be there, I will be [C]there
[Em]To n[Am]ight, under the crystal light,
I'll tell you everything I [Dm]need[Am]
Tonight, under the crystal light,
[Em]sur [Dm]render e[Am]verything to m[Dm]e

[Verse 7]
An[Am]gel [Dm]Angel Angel Angel
Ah [Am]huh Ah huh Ah [Em]huh A[G]h [Dm]huh
One thousand [Am]names that
spring up in my [Em]mind
One thousand [G]names that
spring up in my [Dm]mind
[Am]Like Deodata, Michaelangelo,
[Em]Robert de Ni[G]ro, so many othe[Dm]rs[Am]
Nastassja Kinski and Martin [Em]Luther - there's room [Am]for othe[G]rs,
away [Dm]from me

[Verse 8]
Up on the cat[Am]walk, [Em]up on the c[G]atwalk,
[Dm]up o[Am]n the catwalk
I don't know why.
[Am]
