Jean Genie  David Bowie

##This is an extremely fun song to play.  It's quite easy to make it sound#the original.  The tab is 90% correct, as I taped this off the radio.#sure about the intro (although, it should be that, if I remember#and I think in the extended version there might be a longer solo#on E blues),but then again, there might not be one...Enjoy!#Don't forget to drop me a line:##http://www.geocities.com/SunsetStrip/3224/guitar.html#  Intro: (basically, slide down the guitar while picking madly!)

Talking 'bout Monroe while walking on snow white
New York's a go-go, and everything tastes nice,
Poor little greenie...

Gene Genie, lives.....back

B riff
Jean Genie, lives on his back,
Jean Genie, loves chimney stacks
"It's outrageous", he screams and he bawls,
Jean Genie, let yourself go!

A riff x2
Ohooo
Verse 2:
--------

Sits like a man but he smiles like a reptile,
She love him, she love him, but just for a short while,
She's scratching the sand, won't let go of his hand,
He says he's a beautician, he sells you nutrition,
Keeps all your dead hair for making up underwear
Poor little greenie, ooo oohooo

Chorus 2: Same as chorus 1
---------


Verse 3:
--------

He's so simple minded, he can't drive his module,
He bites on the neon and sleeps in a capsule
