C G D7 G
In the room at the top of the stairs
G C
We grew up together on the wrong side of the river
G D7
And her dream was to make it to here
G C
Well she won his attention and a place in his mansion
G D7 G
In the room at the top of the stairs
G C
In that cold lonely mansion lies a lady hot with passion
G D7
And a man to busy to care
G C
When he’s off with his brokers she invites me over
G D7 G
To the room at the top of the stairs
C G
Lord he’d never believe that these old worn out jeans
G D7
Have been thrown across his best velvet chair
G C
Damned these old cowboy’s blues for wanting to take roots
G D7 G
In the room at the top of the stairs
G C
As I hide here and wait for him to drive out the gate
G D7
Lord my heart is already up there
G C
And my hands won’t stop shaking at the thought of her aching
G D7 G
In the room at the top of the stairs
D7 G C
Damned these old cowboy’s blues for wanting to take roots
G D7 G
In the room at the top of the stairs
In the room at the top of the stairs
G C
We grew up together on the wrong side of the river
G D7
And her dream was to make it to here
G C
Well she won his attention and a place in his mansion
G D7 G
In the room at the top of the stairs

In that cold lonely mansion lies a lady hot with passion
