Strange Kind of Love

Up Escalator

Lyrics and Chords

B                                                        E            D

From Sunset Boulevard to Chateaulait

B                                                        E            D

You’ve been a child of your age and you made it pay

B                                                        E            D

It’s dog eat dog, you’re licking your lips

B                                                        E            D

One more time snakehips, cash in your chips

B                                                        E            D

On the up escalator

B

You’re on the up escalator

B                                                        E            D

Up escalator

B

You’re on the up escalator

A                                                E

But you’re living in an upside down world

B                                                        E            D

There’s mother sick people turning up at your door

B                                                        E            D

But your bodyguard explained

B                                                        E            D

You don’t live there no more

B                                                        E            D

Your money is the lowest form of wit

B                                                        E            D

As you bite the hand that feeds you for the hell of it

B                                                        E            D

You’re on the up escalator

B

And you like the way it feels

B                                                        E            D

On the up escalator

B

There’s alligators at your heels

E                                                              D

Between the big and the bad times

E                                                              D

It’s just skinny little line

B

You’re on the up escalator

A                                                E                              B               E7sus

But you’re living in an upside down world

E                                                        D                                 B            A

All of your life you’ve been shopping for a reason

E                                                        D

Soon you’ll have enough to buy your redemption

C#min            C

Buy now, pay later

B                                                        E            D

On the up escalator

B

You’re on the up escalator

B                                                        E            D

Up escalator

B

You’re on the up escalator

A                                                E

But you’re living in an upside down world

B                                                        E            D

Whoever steps in your way, they must be crushed

B                                                        E            D

You’ve got everything worked out, but it cant be rushed

B                                                        E            D

Shame, shame, your conscience kicks you again

B                                                        E            D

Still there’s plenty of things to help you numb the pain

B                                                        E            D

You’re on the up escalator

B

And you like the way it feels

B                                                        E            D

On the up escalator

B

There’s alligators at your heels

E                                                              D

Between the big and the bad times

E                                                              D

It’s just skinny little line

B

You’re on the up escalator

A                                                E                              B

But you’re living in an upside down world

Lyrics

From Sunset Boulevard to Chateaulait
You’ve been a child of your age and you made it pay
It’s dog eat dog, you’re licking your lips
One more time snakehips, cash in your chips

On the up escalato
r?You’re on the up escalator
But you’re living in an upside down world

There’s mother sick people turning up at your door
But your bodyguard explained
You don’t live there no more
Your money is the lowest form of wit
As you bite the hand that feeds you for the hell of it

You’re on the up escalator
And you like the way it feels
On the up escalator
There’s alligators at your heels
Between the big and the bad times
It’s just skinny little line
You’re on the up escalator
But you’re living in an upside down world

All of your life you’ve been shopping for a reason
Soon you’ll have enough to buy your redemption
Buy now, pay later

On the up escalator
You’re on the up escalator
But you’re living in an upside down world

Whoever steps in your way, they must be crushed
You’ve got everything worked out, but it cant be rushed
Shame, shame, your conscience kicks you again
Still there’s plenty of things to help you numb the pain

You’re on the up escalator
And you like the way it feels
On the up escalator
There’s alligators at your heels
Between the big and the bad times
It’s just skinny little line
You’re on the up escalator
But you’re living in an upside down world
