David Bowie - If You Can See Me: chords

C#
If you can see me I can see you

E
I could wear your new blue shoes
I should wear your old red dress
And walk to the crossroads
So take this knife
     Fm
And meet me across the river

E
Just chutes and ladders and this is the kiss
American Anna, fantastic Alsatian
From nowhere to nothing
And I go way back

Children swarm like thousands of bugs
Towards the lights the beacons above the hill
The stars to the West, the South,
the North and to the East

Chorus:
F#                      G#
Now you could say I've got a gift of sorts
A#m                         G#
A fear of rear windows and swinging doors
A#m                      C
A love of violence and dread of sighs

C#
If you can see me I can see you
If you can see me I can see you

I have seen these bairns
wave their fists at God
Swear to destroy the beasts,
stamping the ground
In their excitement for tomorrow

I could wear your new blue shoes
I should wear your old red dress
And walk to the crossroads
So take this knife
And meet me across the river

Chorus:
I will take your lands and all that lays beneath
The dust of cold flowers, prison of dark of ashes
I will slaughter your kind who descend from belief

I am the spirit of greed, a lord of theft
I'll burn all your books and the problems they make

If you can see me I can see you
If you can see me.
