David Bowie - Time Will Crawl: chords

Bm          G
I've never sailed on a sea
Bm            A
I would not challenge a giant
Bm           G
I could not take on the church
Time will crawl
Bm        A
'Til the 21st century lose
Bm        G
I know a government man
Bm          A
He was as blind as the moon, and he€”
Bm          G
He saw the sun in the night
Bm         A
He took a top-gun pilot and he—
Bm       G
He made him fly through a hole
Bm        A
'Til he grew real old, and he—
Bm      G
And he never came down
Bm         A
He just flew till he burst

Chorus:
            Bm
Time will crawl
           G
'Til our mouths run dry
            Bm
Time will crawl
          A
'Til our feet grow small
            Bm
Time will crawl
          G
'Til our tails fall off
            Bm
Time will crawl
         A
'Til the 21st century lose

I saw a black, black stream
Full of white eyed fish
And a drowning man
With no eyes at all
I felt a warm, warm breeze
That melted metal and steel
I got a bad migraine
That lasted three long years
And the pills that I took
Made my fingers disappear

Chorus:
Time will crawl
Time will crawl
Time will crawl
'Til the 21st century lose

Bm
Time will crawl
A
Hm
G
Time will crawl

You were a talented child
You came to live in our town
We never bothered to scream
When your mask went off
We only smelt the gas
As we lay down to sleep

Time will crawl
And our heads bowed down
Time will crawl
And our eyes fall out
Time will crawl
And the streets run red
Time will crawl
'Til the twenty-first century lose

Chorus:
And our mouths run dry
Time will crawl
And our feet grow small
Time will crawl
And our tails fall off
Time will crawl
'Til the twenty-first century lose

And our heads bowed down
Time will crawl
And our eyes fall out
Time will crawl
And the streets run red
Time will crawl
'Til the twenty-first century lose

Time will crawl
For the crazy child
Time will crawl
We'll give every life
'Til the twenty-first century lose
For the crackpot notion
