Five Years chords and lyrics - DAVID BOWIE

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[G]Pushing through the market square
[Em]So many mothers sighing
[A]News had just come over
We had [C]five years left to cry in
[G]News guy wept and told us
[Em]Earth was really dying
[A]Cried so much his face was wet
Then I [C]knew he was not lying
I heard [G]telephones,
opera house, favorite melodies
I saw [Em]boys,
toys, electric electric irons and TV's
My [A]brain hurt like a warehouse,
it had no room to spare
I had to [C]cram so many things
to store everything in there
And all the fat, [Am]skinny people
[C]And all the tall, short peo[Am]ple
[C]And all the nobody peo[G]ple
[C]And all the somebody peo[D]ple
I never thought I'd need so many [Am]people[C]

[Verse 2]
[G]A girl my age went off her head
[Em]Hit some tiny children
[A]If the Black hadn't have pulled her off
I [C]think she would have killed them
[G]A soldier with a broken arm
Fixed his [Em]stare to the wheels of a Cadillac
[A]A cop knelt and kissed the feet of a priest
And a [C]queer threw up at the sight of that
[G]I think I saw you in an ice cream parlor
[Em]Drinking milk shakes cold and long
[A]Smiling and waving and looking so fine
[C]Don't think you knew you were in this song
And it was [G]cold and it rained,
so I felt like an actor
And I [Em]thought of Ma and I wanted
to get back there
Your [A]face, your race, the way that you talk
I [C]kiss you, you're beautiful, I want you to walk

[Bridge 1]
We've got [G]five years, stuck on my eyes
[Em]Five years, what a surprise
We've got [A]five years, my brain hurts a lot
[C]Five years, that's all we've got
We've got [G]five years, what a surprise
[Em]Five years, stuck on my eyes
We've got [A]five years, my brain hurts a lot
[C]Five years, that's all we've got
We've got [G]five years, stuck on my eyes
[Em]Five years, what a surprise
We've got [A]five years, my brain hurts a lot
[C]Five years, that's all we've got
We've got [G]five years, what a surprise
We've got [Em]five years, stuck on my eyes
We've got [A]five years, my brain hurts a lot
[C]Five years, that's all we've got

[Outro 1]
