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


(this song submerges into the chant to big brother, which i will not
 transcribe.  comment, questions, answers, direct your attention to

bye-bye
