From 1993's "The Red Shoes"



Asus2                Bsus4          C#m7
One more step to the top of the city

       Asus2           Bsus4             C#m7
Where just a couple of pigeons are living

Asus2             Bsus4      Asus2
Up on the angel's shoulders


B    F#m/B  
         I don't know if I'm closer to Heaven but

Amaj7/B                             
        It looks like Hell down there

B
    These streets have never been paved with gold

Amaj7/B 
        Welcome to the loneliest city in the world


Asus2   Bsus4        C#m7
It's no good for you baby

Asus2   Bsus4        C#m7
It's no good for you now

Asus2                   Bsus4
Keep looking up for the ladder



C#m     Abm/B          A
I don't know if you'll love me for it

    C#m     Abm/B           A          
But I don't think we should suffer this

        C#m       Abm/B       A
There's just one thing we can do about it


Asus2             Bsus4           C#m7
Take me up to the top of the city

Asus2             Bsus4      C#m7
Take me up to the top of the city

Asus2             Bsus4        C#m7
Take me up to the top of the city

Asus2                Bsus4         Asus2
And put me up on the angel's shoulders



B   F#m/B
         See how that building there is nearly built

Amaj7/B                                               B
        There's a big fire over on the north of the city


I see you walking down the street with her

Amaj7/B            
        I see your lights going on and off

Asus2    Bsus4        C#m7
She's no good for you baby

Asus2    Bsus4        C#m7
She's no good for you now

Asus2                  Bsus4
Look I'm here with the ladder



C#m     Abm/B       A
I don't know if you love me or not

    C#m     Abm/B           A         
But I don't think we should ever suffer

        C#m       Abm/B       A             
There's just one thing we can do about this


Asus2             Bsus4      
Take me up to the top of the city

Asus2             Bsus4      C#m7
Take me up to the top of the city

Asus2             Bsus4          C#m7
Up to the highest point of the city

Asus2                Bsus4      C#m7
One more step to the top of the city

Asus2            Bsus4
Put me up on the angel's shoulders



Asus2   B            C#m 
I don't mind if it's dangerous

Asus2   B            C#m     B/C#
I don't mind if it's raining

Asus2   B         C#m          B/C#
Take me up to the top of the city


    Asus2            Bsus4        C#m7
And put me up on the angel's shoulders

Asus2             Bsus4        C#m7
Take me up to the top of the city

    Asus2    Bsus4  C#m7                     
Mmm yes, one more step to the top of the city
