THE SUPERMEN from The Man Who Sold The World
INTRO: F G F G F G F G
Ooh, ah Ooh, ah Ooh, ah Ooh, ah Ooh, ah
When [F]all the world was very young
And [G]mountain magic heavy hung
The [F]supermen would walk in file
[G]Guardians of a loveless isle
And [A]gloomy browed with [G]super fear
Their [C]tragic endless lives could heave nor [Esus4]sigh
In solemn perverse sereni[E]ty
Wonderous beings chained[F] to life[G]
CHORUS 1:
[F]Strange [G]games they would play then
[F]No [G]death for the perfect men
[Ab]Life [Bb]rolls into one for them
[Am]So [F]softly a [Ab]super God [C]cries
[F]Ooh, [G]ah [F]Ooh, [G]ah
Where [F]all were minds in uni-thought
[G]Power weird by mystics taught
No [F]pain no joy no power too great
Co[G]lossal strength to grasp a fate
Where [A]sad eyed mermen [G]tossed in slumber
[C]Nightmare dreams no mortal mind could [Esus4]hold
Man would tear his brothers [E]flesh
A chance to die to turn to [F]mould[G]
CHORUS 2:
[F]Far [G]out in the red sky
[F]Far [G]out from the sad eyes
[Ab]Strange [Bb]mad celebration
[Am]So [F]softly a [Ab]super God [C]cries
