The Motel chords by David Bowie

Guitar chords with lyrics

INTRO:
GbM7  F7  GbM7  F7
GbM7  F7  GbM7  F7
GbM7  F7  GbM7  F7


VERSE I:

          GbM7
For we're living

            F7
In a safety zone

         GbM7              F7
Don't be holding back from me

      GbM7                F7
We're living from hour to hour down here

          GbM7            F7
And we'll take it when we can

GbM7  F7  GbM7  F7  GbM7  F7


VERSE II:

       GbM7                 F7
It's a kind of living which recognises

    GbM7                   F7
The death of the odourless man

     GbM7                            F7
When nothing is vanity nothing's too slow

         GbM7             F7
It's not Eden but it's no sham

GbM7  F7  GbM7  F7


CHORUS:

      Gb        F7
There is no hell

     Gb          F7
There is no shame

     Gb
There is no hell

    F7
Like an old hell

      Gb        F7
There is no hell

         AbM7           EbM7/G
And it's lights up, boys

AbM7          Fm7
Lights up boys

GbM7  F7  GbM7  F7
GbM7  F7  GbM7  F7


VERSE III:

  Ebm7               F7
Explosion falls upon deaf ears

            GbM7                 F7
While we're swimming in a sea of sham

GbM7                    F7
Living in the shadow of vanity

          GbM7                 F7
A complex fashion for a simple man


CHORUS:

          Gb        F7
And there is no hell

          Gb         F7
And there is no shame

          Gb
And there is no hell

        F7
Like an old hell

      Gb        F7
There is no hell


VERSE IV:

        AbM7
And the silence flies

      EbM7/G
On its brief flight

  AbM7                    Fm9
A razor sharp crap shoot affair

                    Gm7b5  C7  Fm
And we light up our lives


OUTRO:

Fm           Gm7b5           Ab         Eb
 And there's no more of me exploding you

Gb          Ab  Eb
Re-exposing you

     Gb        Ab  Eb
Like everybody do

Gb           Ab  Eb
Re-exploding you

  Gb                 Fm
I don't know what to use

E
Make somebody move

Gb
Me exploding

             Ab
Me exploding you

Ab
