Bowie David - God Knows Im Good guitar tab

GOD KNOWS I'M GOOD- David Bowie

INTRO: G C C G F C (rpt)

Am Am/G Bm C

I was walking through the counters of a national concern

F C G C C

And a cash machine was spitting by my shoulder

Am Am/G Bm C

And I saw the multitude of faces, honest, rich and clean

F C G C C

As the merchandise exchanged and money roared

Am Am/G Am Am/G

And a woman hot with worry slyly slipped a tin of a stewing steak

Bm C G C C

Into the paper bag at her side

Am Am/G Am Am/G

And her face was white with fear in case her actions were observed

Bm C G C C

So she closed her eyes to keep her conscience blind

CHORUS #1:

Am Am/G Am/F# F

Crying "God knows I'm good, God knows I'm good

F E Am Am/G E

God knows I'm good, God may look the other way today

Am Am/G Am/F# F

God knows I'm good, God knows I'm good

F E Am Am/G E (intro)

God knows I'm good, God may look the other way today"

Then she moved toward the exit clutching tightly at her paper bag

Perspiration trickled down her forehead

And her heart it leapt inside her as the hand laid on her shoulder

She was led away bewildered and amazed

Through her deafened ears the cash machines were shrieking on the counter

As her escort asked her softly for her name

And a crowd of honest people rushed to help a tired old lady

Who had fainted to the whirling wooden floor

CHORUS #2:

Crying "God knows I'm good, God knows I'm good

God knows I'm good, surely God won't look the other way

God knows I'm good, God knows I'm good

God knows I'm good, surely God won't look the other way" Hey!
