David Bowie - Five Years Chords

[Verse]
G                                  G/F# Em                        A5
 Pushing through the market square,       so many mothers sighing
 A                               A/C# C/G
   News had just come over,              we had five years left to cry in
G                                  G/F# Em                        A5
 News guy wept and told us,                earth was really dying
 A                               A/C# C/G
 Cried so much his face was wet,          then I knew he was not lying
 G                                                   G/F#
I heard telephones, opera house, favourite melodies
 Em                                         A5
I saw boys, toys electric irons and T.V.'s
 A                                                       A/C#
My brain hurt like a warehouse, it had no room to spare
 C/G
I had to cram so many things to store everything in there

[Bridge]
               Am              Am/C C/G                           Am      Am/C C/G
And all the fat-skinny people,            and all the tall-short people
                    G          C/G                              D7
And all the nobody people,                and all the somebody people
                                 Am
I never thought I'd need so many people

[Verse]
G                                     G/F# Em                       A5
 A girl my age went off her head,            hit some tiny children
A                                         A/C# C/G
 If the black hadn't a-pulled her off,            I think she would have killed them
G                                G/F# Em                                             A5
 A soldier with a broken arm,            fixed his stare to the wheels of a Cadillac
A                                                A/C# C/G
 A cop knelt and kissed the feet of a priest,            and a queer threw up at the sight of that
G                                             G/F# Em                                   A5
 I think I saw you in an ice-cream parlour,          drinking milk shakes cold and long
A                                            A/C# C/G
 Smiling and waving and looking so fine,              don't think you knew you were in this song
G                                                     G/F#
 And it was cold and it rained so I felt like an actor
Em                                                  A5
 And I thought of Ma and I wanted to get back there
A                                           A/C#
 Your face, your race, the way that you talk
C/G
 I kiss you, you're beautiful, I want you to walk

[Outro]
G                                       G/F#
 We've got five years, stuck on my eyes
Em                           A5
 Five years, what a surprise
A                                           A/C#
 We've got five years, my brain hurts a lot
C/G
