Bowie David

Bowie David - My Death guitar tab

Ok. Am I crazy or what. There is this song on David Bowie's

Ziggy Stardust : The Movie (live) called My Death, it is a cover

of a Jacques Brel song apparently. It is the coolest acoustic song,

yet I can find it nowhere in netland. I have tried to tab it myself,

but I am just a beginner and I fear that it is being played in

some wierd tuning (very minor-gothic sound).

If you haven't heard this song, check it out, its worth the

price of the cassette itself. I will include here the lyrics so that

someone may be inspired to help me out.

MY DEATH -- David Bowie

-----------------------

My Death waits like

and older wine

So confident

I'll go his way

Whistles ahead

and the passing time

My Death waits like

a beggar blind

Who sees the world

through an unlit mind

Throw him a dime

for the passing time

My Death waits there

between your thighs

Your cool fingers

will close my eyes

Let's pick lilacs for

the passing time....

But whatever lies

behind the door

There is nothing much to do

Angel or Devil

I don't care

For in front of that door

there is you

My Death waits there

among the flowers

Where the blackest shadow

blackest shadow cowers

Let's not think about

the passing time

My Death waits there

in a double bed

Sailors of oblivion

at my head

So pull up the sheets against

the passing time....
