Sweet Head Chords

(ver. 1)
David Bowie
[Intro]
 
A F#m A F#m
 
[Verse 1]
 
   A              F#m
I tried to break away from you
           A                      F#m
From the spics and blacks and the gum you chew
                A                  F#m
Where the posters are torn by the muggin' gangs
          A                 F#m
By the faggy parks and the burnt out vans
 
         E                    A
I've got ninety-nine years of laying in the dark
        E                A
And I'm far too young to lie
         E                   A
I've got ninety-nine ways to play my guitar
              E               A
It's going to pay me before I die
 
[Chorus]
 
   E                              A
So bob your sweet head, Brother, Ziggy going to play
     E                            A
I'm just about the best you can hear
       E                       A
Gonna rock it in your head, Shazam! and Kapow!
           E                          A
With my guitar and Mr. Bang-o we can give you sweet head
 
[Bridge]
 
E  A  E  A  E  A
 
A  B    A  B
 
[Repeat Intro]
 
A F#m A F#m
 
[Verse 2]
 
         A              F#m
I'm tough as glass and clean as night
          A                   F#m
Well if looks can love we can love all right
          A              F#m
I'm your rubber peacock angelic whore
           A              F#m
I'm a wrought iron face upon the wall
 
         E                   A
I had ninety-nine years of murder come life
         E                   A
And I'm running away from it all
   E                   A
I got a bedroom, every mirror in town
                 E             A
They're going to claim me if I fall
 
[Chorus]
 
   E                              A
So bob your sweet head, Brother, Ziggy going to play
     E                            A
I'm just about the best you can hear
       E                       A
Gonna rock it in your head, Shazam! and Kapow!
           E                          A
With my guitar and Mr. Bang-o we can give you sweet head
 
[Bridge]
 
E  A           E      A     E                     A
      Sweet head!              Give you sweet head
A  B    A  B
 
 
[Repeat Intro]
 
A F#m
   (Spoken: While ya down there)
A F#m
 
[Alternate Verse]
 
Bm                      G
See my eyes of blocked emotion
Bm                     D
See my tremble, see my fall
    G                D          G        D      A
Traumatics thick and fast, your faith in me can last
  E
Besides I'm known to lay you, one and all
 
[Repeat Intro]
 
A F#m A F#m
 
[Verse 3]
      A                 F#m
Look south the way your mother dwells
         A                          F#m
If she knew what's going down, she'd give you hell
         A              F#m
I'm the kind of man she warned me of
A                        F#m
Till there was rock, you only had god
 
 E                A
You and I have a mutual vow
   E                       A
We both like young, and we both like loud
     E                       A
I got pretty shoes, and I'm kid and proud
       E                       A
I'm street side out with my ear to the crowd
 
[Chorus]
 
   E                              A
So bob your sweet head, Brother, Ziggy going to play
     E                            A
I'm just about the best you can hear
       E                       A
Gonna rock it in your head, Shazam! and Kapow!
           E                          A
With my guitar and Mr. Bang-o we can give you sweet head
 
[Outro]
 
E  A  E  A  E  A   (and fade out)
    (spoken: Move along, sir!)
