All the Madmen David Bowie
David Bowie - All the madmen
Intro: G E G E A G E
Verse:
[E]Day after day
They [E7]send my friends aw[E]ay
To [E7]mansions cold and [E]grey
To the [F]far side of town
Where the [Dm7]thin men stalk the [E]streets
While the [F]sane stay underg[E]round
[E]Day after day
They [E7]tell me I can [E]go
They [E7]tell me I can [E]blow
To the [F]far side of town
Where it's [Dm7]pointless to be [E]high
'Cause it's [F]such a long way [E]down
So I tell them that
Break:
[E]I can fly
[E]I will scream
[E]I will break my [F]arm
[Dm7]I will do me h[E]arm
[E]Here I stand
[E]foot in hand
[E]talking to my [F]wall
I'm [Dm7]not quite right at [E]all...am I?
Pre Chorus:
[F]Don't set me free
I'm as [G]heavy as can be
Just my [F]librium and me
And my [E]E.S.T. make three
Chorus:
'Cause I'd [A]rather stay here
With [E]all the madmen
Than [F#m]perish with the s[A]admen roaming [C#]free
And I'd [A]rather play here
With [E]all the madmen
For I'm [F#m]quite content they're [A]all as sane as [Bm]me
[E] [A] [F#m] [Bm] [G]
(Silence 12 beats or so)
Where can the horizon lie
When a nation hides
Its organic minds
In a cellar...
dark and grim
They must be very dim
Verse:
[E]Day after day
They [E7]take some brain aw[E]ay
Then [E7]turn my face a[E]round
To the [F]far side of town
And [Dm7]tell me that it's [E]real
Then [F]ask me how I [E]feel
Break:
[E] [E] [E] [F] [Dm7] [E] [E]
[E]Here I stand
[E]foot in hand
[E]talking to my [F]wall
I'm [Dm7]not quite right at [E]all
Pre Chorus:
[F]Don't set me free
I'm as [G]helpless as can be
My li[F]bido's split on me
Gimme some [E]good 'ol lobotomy
Chorus:
'Cause I'd [A]rather stay here
With [E]all the madmen
Than [F#m]perish with the s[A]admen roaming [C#]free
And I'd [A]rather play here
With [E]all the madmen
For I'm [F#m]quite content they're [A]all as sane as [Bm]me
[E]
[A]Zane, Zane, Zane
[F#m]Ouvre le Chien
[Bm]Zane, Zane, Zane
[G]Ouvre le Chien
x10 and fade
