 FIVE YEARS / David Bowie
 G F#m
 pushing thru' the market square
 Em C
 so many mother sighing
 A
 News had just come over
 C G Am
 We had five years left ti cry in
 News guy wept and told us
 earth eas really dying
 Cried so much, his face was wet
 Then i knew he was not lying.
 
 G Am G
 I heard telephones, opera house, favorite melodies
 Bm Em
 I saw boys, toys, electric irons and T.V's
 A
 My brain hurt like a ware house, it had no room to spare
 C
 I had to cram so many things to store ev'ry thing in there
 Am
 And all the fat skinny people
 C Am
 And all the tall short people
 C G Am G
 And all the nobody people
 C G Am D7
 And all the somebody people
 Am C G Am
 I never thought i'd need so many people
 
 A girl my age went off her head
 Hit some tiny children
 If the black had not puled her off
 I think she would have killed them
 
 A soldier with a broken arm
 Fixed his state to the wheels of a Cadilac
 A cop Knelt and kissed the feet of a priest
 And a queer threw up at at the sight of that
 
 G F#m
 I think i saw you in an ice cream parlour
 Em
 Drinking milkshakes cold and long
 A
 smiling and waving and looking so fine
 C
 Don't think you knew you were in this song
 
 G Am G
 And it was cold, and it rained, so i felt like an actor
 F#m Em
 And i thoought of Ma, and i wanted to get back there
 A
 Your face, Your race, the way that you talk
 C G Am
 I kiss you, you're beautifull, I want you to walk. we got
 
 G Bm
 [[: five years stuck on my eyes
 Em
 five years what a surprise we got
 A
 five years my brain hurts a lot
 C
 five years that's all we got we've got :]]
