Subject: LADY GRINNING SOUL by David Bowie

This is the last song off of Bowie's grandiour album, "Aladdin Sane".  It's
quite interesting to play.  I haven't typed the tab for the nylon guitar in
the song but just the chords.

The intro piano plays: F#m, G, A, G, A, F#m


             F#m
She'll come, she'll go
           G
She'll lay belief on you
                 A
Skin sweet with musky oil
    Abm                       B
The lady from another grinning soul
       F#m
Cologne she'll wear
      G
Silver and Americard
             A
She'll drive a beetle car
Abm                       B
And beat you down at cool Canasta

             Ebm              B
And when the clothes are strewn
          Bb          B
Don't be afraid of the room
                          C#
Touch the fullness of her breast
                 E
Feel the love of her caress
                     Abm    F#m
She will be your living end


F#m, G, A, Abm, B


She'll come she'll go
She'll lay belief on you
But she won't stake her life on you
How can life become point of view

And when the clothes are strewn
Don't be afraid of the room
Touch the fullness of her breast
Feel the love of her caress
She will be your living end
She will be your living end


As Bowie is singing "She will be your living end" the chords are G#m, G, G#m,
        Bb, Abm, G, Abm, Bb until the song fades out.


The Chords are:
