David Bowie – Bars Of The County Jail (Guitar)

D                    C
La la la la la la la la

C                    D
la la la la la la la la

D                           C
Gather you all and listen here

C                                       D
I'll tell you a tale if you land me an ear

D                              C
I rode a horse through many a town,

C                                   D
but the devil rode me down to the ground

D                           C
I was to marry a very rich girl,

C                      D
I loved her as only I can

D                                          C
But the father was shot and his gold was stoled

C                D
Now I'm Devil's man na na na

                     C
Now I sing a tale of woe

                               D
Through the bars of a country jail na na na na na na

D                     C
La la la la la la la la

C                     D
La la la la la la la la

D                     C
La la la la la la la la

C                     D
La la la la la la la la

D                            C
I walked into the room one night

C                       D
I found her mother and gun

D                                          C
Well the man was dead and I kneeled and cried

C                                            D
Sheriff ran in and said: "I'm holding you, son"

D                     C
La la la la la la la la

D                     C
La la la la la la la la

D                            C
Through the day I sing and play

C                   D
The time is on my side

D                                 C                     D
But when the moon and stars come out I lay me down and cry

D                        C
For the saviour, mar I lied

C                      D
Now I will not have a ride

D                                   C
Before the window the scaffold was made

C                     D
On the morrow I will hang

D                     C
La la la la la la la la

C                     D
la la la la la la la la

D                     C
La la la la la la la la

C                     D
La la la la la la la la
