Roger McGuinn             Up To Me        written by Bob Dylan


E (022100@1)                                A (x02220@1)Every thing went from bad to worse money never changed a thing
E (022100@1)                                      ADeath (x02220@1)kept following  trackin us down at least I heard your bluebird
sing
    G#m (133111@4)             E (022100@1)                            ANow (x02220@1)somebody's got to show their hand time is but an enemy
A (x02220@1)name="chord_022100@1">E  B (x2444x@1)name="chord_x13321@4">C#m         E (022100@1)  A (x02220@1)                      E (022100@1)A (x02220@1)name="chord_022100@1">E A (x02220@1)*

I know you're long gone I guess it must be up to me
          EIf (022100@1)I'd  thought about it I never would have done it
   A (x02220@1)I guess I would a let it slide
   E (022100@1)If I'd a pay  attention to what others were thinking
     A (x02220@1)This heart inside of me would have died
G#m (133111@4)                      E (022100@1)I was just too stubborn to ever be governed
               A (x02220@1)By enforced insanity
A (x02220@1)     E (022100@1)    B (x2444x@1)           C#m (x13321@4) E (022100@1)    A (x02220@1)                E (022100@1)name="chord_x02220@1">A E (022100@1)name="chord_x02220@1">A

Someone had to reach for the risin star I guess it was up to me
         E (022100@1)                                 A (x02220@1)Well the Union Central is pullin out and the orchids are in bloom
     E (022100@1)                                     A (x02220@1)I've only got me one good shirt left and it smells like stale perfume
   G#m (133111@4)                E (022100@1)                                    A (x02220@1)In fourteen months I've only smiled once  I didn't  do it consciously
    E (022100@1)    B (x2444x@1)    C#m (x13321@4)     E (022100@1)         A (x02220@1)                      E (022100@1)name="chord_x02220@1">A E (022100@1)name="chord_x02220@1">A
Somebody's got to find your trail and I guess it had to be up to me
       E (022100@1)                        A (x02220@1)It was like a revelation when you betrayed me with your touch
         E (022100@1)                               AI'd (x02220@1) had just about convinced myself  that nothing had changed that
much
       G#m (133111@4)            E (022100@1)                                AThe (x02220@1)old rounder in the iron mask he slipped me the master key
    E (022100@1)   B (x2444x@1)   C#m (x13321@4)       E (022100@1)       A (x02220@1)               E (022100@1)A (x02220@1)E (022100@1)A* (x02220@1)Somebody had to unlock your heart  he said it was up to me
        E (022100@1)                               AWell (x02220@1)I watched you slowly disappear  down into the officer's club
   E (022100@1)                                      AI (x02220@1)would have followed you in the door but I didn't have a ticket stub
     G#m (133111@4)                          ESo (022100@1)I waited all night long till the break of day  hoping one of us
would get
Afree (x02220@1)         E (022100@1)       B (x2444x@1)      C#m (x13321@4)E (022100@1)       A (x02220@1)               E (022100@1)name="chord_x02220@1">A E (022100@1)name="chord_x02220@1">A *
When the dawn came over the river bridge I knew it was up to me
         E (022100@1)                          AWell (x02220@1)the only decent thing I did was when I worked as a postal clerk
        E (022100@1)                                AWas (x02220@1)to haul your picture down off the wall near the cage where I use
to
             G#m (133111@4)        E (022100@1)                   Awork (x02220@1)I was a fool  not to try to protect your idenity
     E (022100@1)        B (x2444x@1)       C#m (x13321@4)   EYou (022100@1)looked a little burned out my friend
  A (x02220@1)                       E (022100@1)name="chord_x02220@1">A E (022100@1)name="chord_x02220@1">A  *
I thought it might be up to me
       E (022100@1)                          AWhen (x02220@1)I met somebody face to face  I had to remove my hat
      E (022100@1)                              AShe's (x02220@1)everything I need and love but I can't be swayed by that
   G#m (133111@4)            E (022100@1)                              AIt (x02220@1)frightens me the awful truth   how sweet life can be
        E (022100@1)    B (x2444x@1)    C#m (x13321@4)  E (022100@1)    A (x02220@1)                    E (022100@1)name="chord_x02220@1">A E (022100@1)name="chord_x02220@1">A *
But she ain't a gonna make a move I guess it must be up to me
    E (022100@1)                                AWe (x02220@1)heard the sermon on the mount and I knew it was too complex
          E (022100@1)                                 AIt (x02220@1)didn't amount to anything more than what a broken glass reflects
         G#m,               E (022100@1)                      AWhen (x02220@1)you bite off more than you can chew you pay the penalty
E (022100@1)        B (x2444x@1)    C#m (x13321@4)    E (022100@1)    A (x02220@1)                    E (022100@1)name="chord_x02220@1">A E (022100@1)name="chord_x02220@1">A *
