Oh! You Pretty Things David Bowie
Song: Oh! You Pretty Things
Album: Hunky Dory
Capo 1
[F]Wake up you [C]sleepy [G]head put on some clothes, shake [Dm]up your bed
[F]Put another log on the [C]fire for me[G] I've made some breakfast and [Dm]coffee
[F]I look out my window and [C]what do I see
A [A7]crack in the sky and a [Dm]hand reaching down to[Bb] me
All the [B]nightmares came to[C]day
And it looks as though they're [F]here to stay
[F]What are we [C]coming to [G]no room for me, no [Dm]fun for you
[F] I think about a [C]world to come where the [G]books were found by the [Dm]Golden Ones
[F]Written in pain, [C]written in awe
By [A7]a puzzled man who[Dm] questioned What we [Bb]were here for
All the [B]strangers came to[C]day
And it looks as though they're [F]here to stay
Chorus:
[F]Oh, you [Am]pretty things [Dm]
Don't you [C]know you're driving your [Bb7]mothers and fathers ins[F]ane
[F]Oh, you [Am]pretty things [Dm]
Don't you [C]know you're driving your [Bb7]mothers and fathers ins[F]ane
Let me [G]make it plain you [C]gotta make way for the [Bb]Homo Superi[F]or
[F]Look out at your[C] children[G] see their faces in [Dm]golden rays
[F]Don't kid yourself they be[C]long to you[G] they're the start of the [Dm]coming race
[F]The earth is a bitch we've [C]finished our news
[A7]Homo Sapiens [Dm]have outgrown their [Bb]use
All the [B]strangers came tod[C]ay
And it looks as though they're [F]here to stay
