ALL THE MADMEN from The Man Who Sold The World
INTRO: See tab at end...
E5E7sus4E
Day after day they send my friends away
E7sus4EF
To mansions cold and grey to the far side of town
DmEmFE5
Where the thin men stalk the streets while the sane stay underground
E7sus4EE7sus4E
Day after day they tell me I can go they tell me I can blow
FDmEm
To the far side of town where it's pointless to be high
FE
For it's such a long way down, so I tell them that
DmEm
I can fly I will scream I will break my arm
DmE
I will do me harm
DmEm
Here I stand foot in hand talking to my wall
DmE
I'm not quite right at all am I?
FG
Don't set me free I'm as heavy as can be
FE
Just my librium and me and my EST makes three
CHORUS 1:
AE
'Cause I'd rather stay here with all the madmen
F#mAC#
Than perish with the sad men roaming free
AE
And I'd rather play here with all the madmen
F#mABmE
For I'm quite content they're all as sane as me
SOLO: A F#m Bm G
SPOKEN: Where can the horizon lie when a nation hides its organic minds
In a cellar dark and grim they must be very dim
EE7sus4E
Day after day they take some brain away
E7sus4EF
Then turn my face around to the far side of town
DmEmFE
And tell me that it's real then ask me how I feel
SOLO 2: E F Dm E
F
Here I stand foot in hand talking to my wall
DmE
I'm not quite right at all
FG
Don't set me free I'm as helpless as can be
FE
My libido's split on me gimme some good ole lobotomy
CHORUS 2
AF#m
Zane zane zane ouvre le chien
BmG
Zane zane zane ouvre le chien
AF#m
Zane zane zane ouvre le chien
BmG
Zane zane zane ouvre le chien
Repeat until fade...
