Date: Fri, 7 Jul 95 16:00:56 EDT From: Winston Campbell <jieuryli@eden.rutgers.edu> Subject: BIG BROTHER by David Bowie this is one of my favourite bowie songs of all time. it is off of the great and enigmatic album -diamond dogs-. it post-cedes 1984. bowie is just so great. but anyway, here we go: (music starts, bass plays an A note)

^Bmdon~t talk of ^Adust and roses ^Bmor should we ^Apowder our noses' ^Adon~t live for ^Glast year~s capers give me ^Dsteel, give me steel, give me ^Epulses unreal

^Bmwe~ll build a ^Aglass asylum ^Bmwith just a ^Ahint of mayhem ^Ayou~ll build a ^Gbetter whirlpool we~ll be ^Dliving from sin, then we can ^Ereally begin

^Dplease savior, ^Gsave your s^Dhores ^G ^Dhelp me, i~m ^Ggraphically ^Gbyours ^A

some one to ^Bmclaim us, ^Gsome one to ^Afollow some one to ^Bmshame us, ^Gsome brave a^Apollo some one to ^Bmfool us, ^Gsome one like ^Ayou

E D-B5-A we want you big brother, big brother break: Bm A G Bm A G Bm A G E G E G

^Gi know you think you~re ^Emawful square that you~ve ^Cmade every one and you~ve ^Gbeen everywhere ^Clord, i~d take an o^Gverdose if you ^Dknew what~s going ^Adown

some one to ^Bmclaim us, ^Gsome one to ^Afollow some one to ^Bmshame us, ^Gsome brave a^Apollo some one to ^Bmfool us, ^Gsome one like ^Ayou some one to^Bm claim us,^G some one to^A follow some one to ^Bmshame us, ^Gsome brave a^Apollo some one to ^Bmfool us, ^Gsome one like ^Ayou some one to^Bm claim us,^G some one to^A follow some one to ^Bmshame us, ^Gsome brave a^Apollo some one to ^Bmfool us, ^Gsome one like ^Ayou

we want you big b^Erother
