Alternative Candidate – David Bowie, Diamond Dogs

[Intro]
(Drums)
Bm Bm E A x3

[Verse 1]
F#m E
Inside every teenage girl there's a fountain
F#m E
Inside every young pair of pants there's a mountain
Bm E A F#m
Inside every mother's eyes is Tommy Tinkrem's bed
Bm E A F#m E
Inside every candidate waits a grateful dead

[Chorus 1]
Bm F# G
I make it a thing, when I'm on my own to relieve myself
Bm F# G
I make it a thing, when I gazelle on stage to believe in myself
Bm F# E
I make it a thing, to glance in window panes and look pleased with myself
G E Bm
Yeah, and pretend I'm walking home

[Instrumental]
(Bm) Bm E A
Bm Bm E A

[Verse 2]
F#m E
I took it so bad, I sat in the correction room
F#m E
Took me a fag, and a kick in the moon
Bm E A F#m
Well, I ain't gonna suck no radar wing because inside this tin is tin
Bm E A F#m E
Would you like to techno-plate 'cause I'm your candidate, oh yeah

[Chorus 2]
Bm F# G
It's a matter of life, and the way you walk, you've got a BrylCream queen
Bm F# G
It's a matter of tact, in the things you talk, that keeps his passport clean
Bm F# E
A matter of fact, that a cock ain't a cock on a twelve inch screen
G E Bm
So I'll pretend I'm walking home

[Instrumental]
(Bm) Bm E A
Bm Bm E A x3

[Verse 3]
F#m E
You don't have to scream a lot to keep an age in tune
