Five Years Tab

by The Enemy


Hey everyone here's the chords for The Enemy's cpver of David Bowie's Five Years

				  
 pushing thru' the market square
  
 so many mother sighing

 News had just come over
				   
 We had five years left ti cry in


 News guy wept and told us
 earth eas really dying
 Cried so much, his face was wet
 Then i knew he was not lying.

  	 
 I heard telephones, opera house, favorite melodies
     
 I saw boys, toys, electric irons and T.V's
    
 My brain hurt like a ware house, it had no room to spare
	   
 I had to cram so many things to store ev'ry thing in there
		 
 And all the fat skinny people
			
 And all the tall short people
	          
 And all the nobody  people
		    
 And all the somebody  people
				  	   	 
 I never thought i'd need so many people



 A girl my age went off her head
 Hit some tiny children
 If the black had not puled her off
 I think she would have killed them

 A soldier with a broken arm
 Fixed his state to the wheels of a Cadilac
 A cop Knelt and kissed the feet of a priest
 And a queer threw up at at the sight of that

					  
 I think i saw you in an ice cream parlour

 Drinking milkshakes cold and long

 smiling and waving and looking so fine

 Don't think you knew you were in this song

     	  
 And it was cold, and it rained, so i felt like an actor
    
 And i thoought of Ma, and i wanted to get back there
      
 Your face, Your race, the way that you talk
   						      
 I kiss you, you're beautifull, I want you to walk. we got

 			 
five years stuck on my eyes

five years what a surprise we got

five years my brain hurts a lot

five years that's all we got we've got

thats it hope it helps!
