Melanie-Uptown And Down I haven't heard the studio version yet but I have heard the Leftover Wine live version so thats what I'm doing. You need a capo around 3rd fret I'm guessing.

you play that repeatedly through the verse. Verse 1:

                 C
   You know I've been to New York

   Csus4/6
   Uptown and down

A7#3 And if you been there

        Csus4/6
   Well you've been around

         C
   And I couldn't care less

          Csus4/6
   If you lov'd me or not,

      A7#3       Csus4/6
   Oh yes, But I almost forgot

Chorus:

 F  G          C
   How are the people back home?

 F  G                   C
   Tell them I've got a show of my own

 F  G
   Don't say

       C
   You think that I've grown.

Verse 2:

              C
   I've grown used to the people

   Csus4/6
   Tellin' me I'm pretty

A7#3 And used to the nights

            Csus4/6
   With the boys in the city,

            C
   And they couldn't care less

        Csus4/6
   If I loved them or not,

A7#3 I've been looking real hard,

         Csus4/6
   But I don't know for what

Chorus:

 F  G          C
   How are the people back home?

 F  G                C
   Tell them I got a show of my own

 F     G                    C
   But sometimes I wish I'd never left home.

Verse 3:

        C
   I've been to New York

   Csus4/6
   Uptown and Down

A7#3 And if you been there

        Csus4/6
   Well you've been around

         C
   And I couldn't care less

          Csus4/6
   If you lov'd me or not,

A7#3 No I couldn't care less

         Csus4/6                C  Csus4/6  A7#3
   But I guess care a whole lot

        C
   I've been to New York

   Csus4/6
   Uptown and down,

A7#3 And if you been there

        Csus4/6
   Well you've been around

         C
   And I couldn't care less

          Csus4/6
   If you lov'd me or not,

      A7#3   Csus4/6
   Oh yes, I guess

         C
   I care a whole

   Csus4/6   A7#3  Csus4/6
   Lot.

    C               Csus4/6            A7#3
   Yeah, I wouldn't be here if I didn't care

  Csus4/6   C   Csus4/6  A7#3  Csus4/6  C
   a whole lot.

Honestly I really don't know the exact names of some of the chords in the song. (A recurring theme in my tabs)
