How Does The Grass Grow? - David Bowie - The Next Day
Intro:
A G# G F# F
BbTheres a graveyard by G#the station
Where thF#e girls wear nylon skirts and
Sandals from Hungary
BbThe boys ride their Riga 1s
G#Upon the little hill
F#Such sadness and grief
The trees die standing
BbThats where we made our trysts
And stG#ruggled with our guns
F#Would you still love me
If the clocks could go backwards
BbThe girls would fill with blood and
G#The grass would be green again
F#Remember the dead
They were so great
Some of them

Bb G# F#
Bb G# F#
BbBut I lived a blind life
G#A white face in prison
F#But you made a life out of nothing
Now I ride my black horse
BbI miss you more
G#Than youll ever ever know
F#Waiting with my red eyes
And my stone heart
