I am doing exactly what David Bowie wouldn't want, I think.
I am posting "Tin Machine" tab under "David Bowie."
Oh, well.

Heaven's in Here

Riff 1

Play that over and over again.  Well, everywhere except the verses, as
a matter of fact.  Guitar 2 plays some riffs at the beginning,  but I'm
not going to bother figuring out all the solos.

Riffs (not even going to try to time it, just listen the the
recording.)
e -0-0-------------0------------------7--5-5------|
B -0-0-------------5-3----------------7---7-5-----|
G ---------------------424-------------------7----|
D -------------------------2----------------------|

Then the verses, the chords go
   E (022100@1)    D (xx0232@1)    G (320003@1)    De (xx0232@1)-7------5------10-----5-----|
B -9------7------12-----7-----|
G -9------7------12-----7-----|

And now the lyrics,
(Verse chords)
Baby I dream between the blade and the tongue
Of the rose on your cheek the wounded and dumb
We stumble and fall, we stumble and fall
Skin on skin but there's heaven in...

(E chord w/ riff 1)
Heaven's in here
Heaven's in here
Among the twilight and stars
Like a rocket to Mars
Heaven's in here

(Verse)
The first and the last are telling it all
Telling you loud but selling it small
I'm taking a swing at this shadow of mine
Crucifix hangs an' my heart's in my mouth
but it's here

(E chord w/ riff 1)
Heaven's in here
Among the twilight and stars
Like a rocket to Mars
Heaven's in here

(Solo forever on the E chord)

(Verse)
Heaven lies between your marbled thighs
The rustle of your falling gown
We stumble and fall like trajedy falls
We stumble and twirl there's heaven in here
We stumble and fall uncertain we fall
flesh on flesh but there's heaven in...
Heaven's in here

(E chord w/ riff 1)
Heaven's in here
Among the twilight and stars
Like a rocket to Mars
Heaven's in here
You'll dance to my tongue
We'll dance on the sun
We're twilight and stars
There's heaven in here

(Solo on E chord until the end)
