[G] Gave your heart to every [F#m] bedsit room, At least a [Em] picture on the [D] wall And you [G] sat behind a million [F#m] pair of eyes And [Em] told them how they [D] saw [F#m] Then we lost your [Bm] train of thought Your [A] paintings are all [G] your own While [Em] troubles are rising, we'd [F#m] rather be scared [G] Together than a[A]-lone

Ah [G] here she comes, [C] here she comes, [G] here she comes again The same old painted lady from the [D] brow of a superbrain She'll [Em] scratch this world to pieces as she [F] comes on like a friend But a [G] couple of songs from your old scrap book Could [D] send her home again

[G] [F#m] [Em] [D] [G] [F#m] [Em] [Em] [A]

Now [G] hear this Robert [F#m] Zimmerman Though I [Em] don't suppose we'll [D] meet [G] Ask your good friend [F#m] Dylan If he's a [Em] while down the old [D] street [F#m] Tell him we lost his [Bm] poems so we're [A] writing on the [G] walls [Em] Give us back our [F#m] unity and [G] give us back our [A] family You're [Em] every nation's [F#m] refugee don't [G] leave us with our [A] sanity

And she's [C] known in the darkest clubs For [F] pushing ahead of the [C] dames [G] [F] | [C] / [G] [F] |

If she [C] says she can do it Then she can [F] do it, she don't make false [C] claims [G] [F] | [C] / [G] [F] |

The Bewlay Brothers { Written by David Bowie }

Intro: [D] / / / [Em] / [A] / | [D] / / / [Em] / [A] / |

And so the [D] story goes they wore the clothes They said the things to make it seem [Em] improbable [A] The whale of a [D] lie like they hope it was [D] [Em] [A] And the [D] goodmen tomorrow had their feet in the wallow And their [Em] heads of brawn were nicer shorn And [A] how they bought their positions with [D] saccharin and trust And the [Em] world was asleep to our [A] latent fuss [D] [D] [Em] Sighing, the swirl through the streets like the [A] crust of the sun

The Bewlay [Bm] Brothers In our [A] wings that bark Flashing [G] teeth of brass Standing [F#] tall in the dark Oh, and we were [Asus2] gone Hanging out with your [G] dwarf men We were so turned [Em] on By your lack of con<C>-clusions

[D] / / / [Em] / [A] /

Well, [D] I was stone and he was wax So he could scream, and still relax, [Em] unbelievable [A] And we frightened the small [D] children away [D] [Em] [A] And our [D] talk was old and dust would flow through our veins And Lo! it was midnight back [Em] at the kitchen door [A] Like the grim face on the cath[D]-edral floor [D] [Em] And the solid book we wrote [A] cannot be found today [D] [D] [Em] And it was stalking time for the moon boys, [A]

The Bewlay [Bm] Brothers With our [A] backs on the arch In the [G] Devil-may-be-here But he can't [F#] sing about that Oh, and we were [Asus2] gone Real cool [G] traders We were so turned [Em] on You thought we were <C> fakers

And now the [D] dress is hung, the ticket pawned The Factor Max that proved the fact is [Em] melted down [A] Woven on the edging of my [D] pillow [D] [Em] [A] And my [D] brother lays upon the rocks He could be dead, he could be not, he [Em] could be you He's [A] chameleon, comedian, corinthian and [D] caricature [D] [Em] Shooting up pie in the [A] sky Bewlay [D] Brothers [D] In the [Em] feeble and the bad [A]

Bewlay [Bm] Brothers In the [A] blessed and cold In the [G] crutch-hungry dark Was where we [F#] flayed our mark Oh, and we were [Asus2] gone Kings of ob[G]-livion We were so turned [Em] on In the mind warp pa<C>-vilion

[Bm] Lay me place and [C] bake me pie I'm [F] starving for me [Bm] gravy [Bm] Leave my shoes, and [C] door unlocked I [F] might just slip a[Bm]-way, hey Just for the [F] day!
