Rock'n Roll Suicide
by David Bowie, from the "Ziggy Stardust"-album
-----------------------------------------------

       C             E7
Time takes a cigarette puts it in your mouth
         F          G         Am
You pull on your finger, then another finger, then your cigarette
G           F      G          Am
 The wall to wall is calling it lingers, then you forget
G  F
Oh you're a rock'n roll suicide
C G          C           E7
   You're too old to lose it too young to choose it
     F       G         Am
And the clock waits so patiently on your song
G         F         G            Am
 You walk past a cafe but you don't eat when you lived too long
G    F
Oh no no no you're a rock'n roll suicide
C G                      E7
   Chev brakes are snarling as you stumble across the road
    F       G         Am
But the day breaks instead so you hurry home
G        F       G
 Don't let the sun blast your shadow
        E7          Am
don't let the milk floats ride your mind         EADGBE
  F     D9     G7            (D9 = xx4210)
So natural religiously unkind
            C
Oh no love you're not alone
                   A
You're watching yourself but you're too unfair
       C                  A
you got your head all tangled but if I could only make you care
  C#m         G#m
Oh no love you're not alone
      B         D#m
no matter what or who you've been
     Bbm          C#
no matter when or where you've seen
     B            D#m
all the knives to lacerate your brain
       Bbm              C#
I've had my share I'll help you with the pain you're not alone
Bb       C#
         Just turn on me you're
Bb         C#
not alone     let's turn on me and be
you're not alone  gimme your hands
you're wonderful  gimme your hands
you're wonderful  gimme your hands
