Subject: BIG BROTHER by David Bowie
this is one of my favourite bowie songs of all time. it is off of the great
and enigmatic album -diamond dogs-. it post-cedes 1984. bowie is just so
great. but anyway, here we go:
(music starts, bass plays an A note)
Bm A
don~t talk of dust and roses
Bm A
or should we powder our noses?
A G
don~t live for last year~s capers
D E
give me steel, give me steel, give me pulses unreal
Bm A
we~ll build a glass asylum
Bm A
with just a hint of mayhem
A G
you~ll build a better whirlpool
D E
we~ll be living from sin, then we can really begin
D G D G
please savior, save your shores
D G Gb A
help me, i~m graphically yours
Bm G A
some one to claim us, some one to follow
Bm G A
some one to shame us, some brave apollo
Bm G A
some one to fool us, some one like you
E D-B5-A
we want you big brother, big brother
break: Bm A G Bm A G Bm A G
E G E G
G Em
i know you think you~re awful square
C G
that you~ve made every one and you~ve been everywhere
C G D A
lord, i~d take an overdose if you knew what~s going down
Bm G A
some one to claim us, some one to follow
Bm G A
some one to shame us, some brave apollo
Bm G A
some one to fool us, some one like you
Bm G A
some one to claim us, some one to follow
Bm G A
some one to shame us, some brave apollo
Bm G A
some one to fool us, some one like you
Bm G A
some one to claim us, some one to follow
Bm G A
some one to shame us, some brave apollo
Bm G A
some one to fool us, some one like you
E
we want you big brother
