Bewlay Bros(Chords)

	        OK, I just figured this one out.  Not too hard. 
In the second and third verses, another guitar comes in and solos 
over the chords. 
 
 
The Bewlay Brothers - David Bowie 
off the CD Hunky Dory 
 
{intro} D D Em A7 x2 
             D 
And so the story goes they wore the clothes 
             D                          Em         A 
They said the things to make it seem improbable 
            D                        D    Em A 
The whale of a lie like they hope it was 
         D 
And the Goodmen of Tomorrow 
    D 
Had their feet in the wallow 
        Em 
And their heads of Brawn, were nicer shorn 
     A                                       D                 D 
And how they bought their positions with saccharin and trust. 
         Em                      A           D D 
The world was asleep to our latent fuss. 
Em 
Sighing the swirl through the streets 
         A 
Like the crust of the sun 
Bm 
The Bewlay Brothers 
         A 
in our Wings that Bark 
          G 
Flashing teeth of Brass 
          F# 
Standing tall in the dark 
             Em 
Oh, We were Gone----- 
                        G 
Hanging out with your Dwarf Men 
                  Em 
We were so turned on 
                  G 
By your lack of Conclusions 
 
D D Em A7 
 
I was Stone and he was Wax 
So he could scream and still relax, unbelievable 
And we frightened the small children away 
And our talk was old and dust would flow 
Thru our veins and Lo! it was midnight 
Back o' the kitchen door 
Like the grim face on the Cathedral floor 
And the solid book we wrote 
Cannot be found today 
It was stalking time for the Moonboys 
The Bewlay Brothers 
With our backs on the arch 
In the Devil-may-be-here 
But He can't sing above that 
Oh, We were Gone 
Real Cool Traders 
We were so Turned On 
You thought we were Fakers 
 
D D Em A7 
 
Now the dress is hung, the ticket pawned 
the Factor Max that proved the fact 
is melted down, 
And woven on the edging of my pillow 
Now my Brother lays upon the Rocks 
He could be dead.  He could be not, 
He could be You. 
He's Camelian, comedian Corinthian and Caricature 
'Shooting-up Pie-in-the-Sky' 
The Bewlay Brothers 
In the feeble and the Bad 
The Bewlay Brothers 
In the Blessed and Cold 
In the Crutch-hungry dark 
Was where we flayed our Mark 
Oh, We were Gone 
Kings of Oblivion 
We were so Turned On 
In the Mind-Warp Pavilion 
 
Bm               A 
Lay me Place and bake me Pie 
      G               Em 
I'm starving for me Gravy 
Bm                    A 
Leave my shoes, and door unlocked 
    G               Em 
I might just slip away 
              F 
Just for the Day, Hey!               {Repeat last 2 lines into fade} 
             Bm 
Please come Away, Hey!
