David Bowie - The Jean Genie (1973 Album Aladdin Sane) [Intro] E E E A E A E A x1 [Verse 1]
E                 A      E              A
A small Jean Genie snuck off to the city

E                   A   E                   A
Strung out on lasers and slash back blazers and

E                  A      E                  A
Ate all your razors while pulling the waiters

E                   A    E                   A
Talking 'bout Monroe and walking on Snow White

E                  A    E                    A
New York's a go-go, and everything tastes nice

E                   A
Poor little Greenie

E   A     E        A   E   A     E         B
           Ooh ooh              ("Get back on it")
[Chorus]
B              Bsus4
The Jean Genie lives on his back

B              Bsus4
The Jean Genie loves chimney stacks(The Jean Genie)

B                Bsus4
He's outrageous, he screams and he bawls

B               Bsus4
The Jean Genie, let yourself go

E                A      E                A
Sits like a man, but he smiles like a reptile

    E                        A    E                A
She loves him, she loves him, but just for a short while

      E                     A     E             A
She'll scratch in the sand, won't let go his hand

   E                      A   E              A
He says he's a beautician and sells you nutrition

    E                       A    E              A
And keeps all your dead hair for making up underwear

E                   A

     E            A       E                 A
He's so simple minded, he can't drive his module

   E                 A   E               A    E  A
He bites on the neon and sleeps in a capsule

E              A   E  A
Loves to be loved

E
Loves to be loved
