==Edit==
David Bowie passed away a few days 
ago after a tough battle against 
cancer. Words can't express how I
felt when I woke up and got to know 
about his death, and any attempt to 
describe how much he and his
music have helped me, to phrase what
 his works mean to me, would 
probably sound superficial, 
predictable
and dull. Only a few artists have 
been as determining, significant and
 important to me as he was, and I
thought he was sort of immortal. But
 he wasn't.
Yet I like to think his music will 
live on and keep inspiring 
generations... As the poet says, 
only art
can make us eternal, and Bowie will 
always be my epitome of art.
This tab is my personal homage to 
Major Tom, the Man Who Sold The 
World, Ziggy Stardust, Aladdin Sane,
Halloween Jack, the Thin White Duke,
 the Man Who Fell To Earth, the 
Blackstar... to David Bowie.
Thanks for everything, you are my 
hero.

E5
Day after day
E7                     E
They send my friends away
    E7                 E
To mansions cold and grey
        F
To the far side of town
           Dm                   Em
Where the thin men stalk the streets
           F               E5
While the sane stay underground


E5
Day after day
E7                  E
They tell me I can go
      E7             E
They tell me I can blow
        F
To the far side of town
            Dm             Em
Where it's pointless to be high
Continues after the ad
             F               E
'Cause it's such a long way down


E
So I tell them that
                            Dm  
I can fly, I will scream, I will 
          F
break my arm
Dm            E
I will do me harm
                            Dm     
Here I stand, foot in hand, talking
       F
 to my wall
    Dm                 E
I'm not quite right at all, am I?


F                          G
Don't set me free, I'm as heavy as 
can be
         F                    E
Just my librium and me and my EST 
makes three



E           A                    
'Cause I'd rather stay here with all
E
 the madmen
     F#m              A           
Than perish with the sadmen 
    C#
roaming free
         A                    E
And I'd rather play here with all 
the madmen
         F#m                  A   
For I'm quite content they're all 
           Bm
as sane as me

(Where can the horizon lie
When a nation hides
Its organic minds in a cellar, dark 
and grim,
They must be very dim)


E5
Day after day
     E7                E
They take some brain away
      E7             E
Then turn my face around
        F
To the far side of town
    Dm                 E
And tell me that it's real
     F             E
Then ask me how I feel

E                           E/D  
Here I stand, foot in hand, 
         F
talking to my wall
    Dm                 E
I'm not quite right at all

F                          G
Don't set me free, I'm as helpless 
as can be
      F                            
My libido's split on me, gimme some
  E
 good 'ole lobotomy


E           A                    
'Cause I'd rather stay here with all
E
 the madmen
     F#m              A           
Than perish with the sadmen 
    C#
roaming free
         A                    E
And I'd rather play here with all 
the madmen
         F#m                  A   
For I'm quite content they're all 
           Bm
as sane as me
