FIVE YEARS / David Bowie
G F#m
pushing thru' the market square
Em C
so many mother sighing
A
News had just come over
C G Am
We had five years left ti cry in
News guy wept and told us
earth eas really dying
Cried so much, his face was wet
Then i knew he was not lying.
G Am G
I heard telephones, opera house, favorite melodies
Bm Em
I saw boys, toys, electric irons and T.V's
A
My brain hurt like a ware house, it had no room to spare
C
I had to cram so many things to store ev'ry thing in there
Am
And all the fat skinny people
C Am
And all the tall short people
C G Am G
And all the nobody people
C G Am D7
And all the somebody people
Am C G Am
I never thought i'd need so many people
A girl my age went off her head
Hit some tiny children
If the black had not puled her off
I think she would have killed them
A soldier with a broken arm
Fixed his state to the wheels of a Cadilac
A cop Knelt and kissed the feet of a priest
And a queer threw up at at the sight of that
G F#m
I think i saw you in an ice cream parlour
Em
Drinking milkshakes cold and long
A
smiling and waving and looking so fine
C
Don't think you knew you were in this song
G Am G
And it was cold, and it rained, so i felt like an actor
F#m Em
And i thoought of Ma, and i wanted to get back there
A
Your face, Your race, the way that you talk
C G Am
I kiss you, you're beautifull, I want you to walk. we got
G Bm
[[: five years stuck on my eyes
Em
five years what a surprise we got
A
five years my brain hurts a lot
C
five years that's all we got we've got :]]
