F#m Em Hush now child,
A Bm and don't you cry

F#m Em Just move on up
A Bm towards your destination
F#m Em Though you may find from time to time
A Bm F#m Complications [Instrumental]
Em - A - Bm - F#m - Em - A - Bm [Verse 1]
F#m Em (...) Bite your lip and take a trip Though there may be wet road ahead
Continues after the ad
You cannot slip Just move on up and peace you will find Into the steeple of beautiful people Where there's only one kind [Chorus]
F#m Em (...) So hush now child and don't you cry Your folks might understand you by and by Move on up and keep on wishing Remember your dream is your only scheme So keep on pushing [Instrumental]
Em - A - Bm - F#m - Em - A - Bm [Verse 2] (same chords as verses 1) Take nothing less Ain't no second best Do not obey you must have your say That you can past the test Just move on up Just move on up to a greater day With just a little faith if you put your mind to it You can surely do it [Instrumental]
Em - A - Bm - F#m - Em - A - Bm [Other]
F#m Em (...) Just move on up Move on up What move on up Oh child but just a move on up Just move on up Move on up Just move on up Move on up What move on up Oh child but just a move on up Just move on up Move on up
