Complete chords for Conversation Piece - David Bowie
Created by Forever Erratic
intro
G D
G D
I took this walk to ease my mind
Am
To find out what's gnawing at me
C
Wouldn't think to look at me,
G D
that I've spent a lot of time in education
C
It all seems so long ago
G D
I'm a thinker, not a talker
C
I've no-one to talk to, anyway
G F
I can't see the road
C G
for the rain in my eyes
G F C G
Ahhh ...
D
I live above the grocers store,
Am
owned by an Austrian
C
He often calls me down to eat
G D
And he jokes about his broken English,
C
tries to be a friend to me
G D
But for all my years of reading conversation,
C
I stand without a word to say
G F
I can't see the bridge
C G
for the rain in my eyes
Ahhh...
(now it changes key, everything goes up 1 step)
A E
And the world is full of life
Bm
Full of folk who don't know me
D
And they walk in twos or threes or more
A E
While the light that shines above the grocer's store
D
Investigates my face so rudely
A E
And my essays lying scattered on the floor
D
Fulfill their needs just by being there
A E
And my hands shake, my head hurts,
D A
my voice sticks inside my throat
A E
I'm invisible and dumb,
D A
And no-one will recall me
A G
And I can't see the water
C Am7? E A
for the tears in my ey-y-yes
