Highly techno piece of jungle beat music, but here's a good chord thing, and

it sounds cool by itself. Words from http://www.davidbowie.com

        -Ben Toomey

To David Bowie:  If you ever read this, e-mail me and tell me how I did, and

you                  will have made my year.  toomey@sos.net is the address.

There's an E based intro that you could play by doing an E(022100) all the

time, or make up for the loss of special effects by playing (X-12-11-12-12-12).

Verse 1:

        B                         F#                            A       A

          My, my, but time do fly, When it's in another pair of hands.

              B                         F#                        A       A

        And a loser I will be, for I've never been a winner in my life.

        (Continue chord pattern)

        I got used to stress and pain, I used the sucker pills,

                and pity for the self.

        Though it's the animal in me, But I'd rather be

                a beggar man on the shelf.

        G                                 F#

        Don't be so forlorn it's just the payoff

                                 E

        It's the rain before the storm.

             G                               F#

        On a better day I'll take you by the hand

                                      E

        And I'll walk you through the door.

        G                                 F#

        Don't be so forlorn it's just the payoff

                                 A

        It's the rain before the storm.

        C                               G

        Don't you let my letter get you down.

        Bb                           F

                                     (Don't you don't you don't you don't you)

Intro thingy 4X or so

        C                               G

        Don't you let my letter get you down.

        Bb                           F

                                     (Don't you don't you don't you don't you)

Intro thingy fade away
