David Bowie - Blackstar Chords
B
In the villa of Ormen, in the villa of Ormen
Stands a solitary candle,
C D Em C
ah-ah, ah-ah
D C Bm Am
In the centre of it all, in the centre of it all
D B
Your eyes
On the day of execution, on the day of execution
Only women kneel and smile, ah-ah, ah-ah
At the centre of it all, at the centre of it all
Your eyes, your eyes
D C Em
Ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah
In the villa of Ormen, in the villa of Ormen
Stands a solitary candle, ah-ah, ah-ah
In the centre of it all, in the centre of it all
Your eyes
Ah-ah-ah
F# Db
Something happened on the day he died
E B
Spirit rose a metre and stepped aside
D F#
Somebody else took his place, and bravely cried
(I’m a blackstar, I’m a blackstar)
How many times does an angel fall?
How many people lie instead of talking tall?
He trod on sacred ground, he cried loud into the crowd
(I’m a blackstar, I’m a blackstar, I’m not a gangster)
C
I can’t answer why (I’m a blackstar)
Db
Just go with me (I’m not a filmstar)
C
I’m-a take you home (I’m a blackstar)
Db
Take your passport and shoes (I’m not a popstar)
C
And your sedatives, boo (I’m a blackstar)
Db
You’re a flash in the pan (I’m not a marvel star)
C
I’m the great I am (I’m a blackstar)
F# Db E
I’m a blackstar, way up, oh honey, I’ve got game
Ebm
I see right so white, so open-heart it’s pain
D F#
I want eagles in my daydreams, diamonds in my eyes
(I’m a blackstar, I’m a blackstar)
F# Db
Something happened on the day he died
E B
Spirit rose a metre and stepped aside
D F#
Somebody else took his place, and bravely cried
(I’m a blackstar, I’m a blackstar)
C
I can’t answer why (I’m not a gangster)
Db
But I can tell you how (I’m not a flam star)
C
We were born upside-down (I’m a star star)
Db
Born the wrong way ‘round (I’m not a white star)
C
(I’m a blackstar, I’m not a gangster
I’m a blackstar, I’m a blackstar
I’m not a pornstar, I’m not a wandering star
I’m a blackstar, I’m a blackstar)
In the villa of Ormen stands a solitary candle
Ah-ah, ah-ah
At the centre of it all, your eyes
On the day of execution, only women kneel and smile
Ah-ah, ah-ah
At the centre of it all, your eyes, your eyes
Ah-ah-ah
