DAVID BOWIE & ROBERT SMITH (The Cure) - Quicksand chords
Start Jamming...
[D] I was trapped in my room.
[G] This goes back a long time.
[D]
[Em]
[D]
[Em]
[G] I'm closer to the golden door
Immersed in Crowther's uniform
[D] And in the dream
I'm
[G] living in a silent film
Portraying him on sacred ground
[D] Of dream reality
[G] I'm [D]
[A#] frightened by the topogo
[C] I'm drawing to the ragged hoe
And [D] I ain't got [Bm] the power [G] anymore
No, I ain't got the power [D] anymore
I'm
[Em]
[E]
[A] interested in Uncle Bo's eyes
Film proof of [D] Churchill's lies [E] I'm destiny
[A] Torn between the light and
The others see their targets [E] Divide symmetry
Should
[C] I get some vipers by
[D] Or herald out the death of my man
[E] Sinking in [C#m] the quicksand
[G] [A]
I ain't got the power [E] anymore
Don't
[B] believe [C]
in [C#m] yourself
Don't [E] deceive with [B] belief
Knowledge [F] comes in [F#m] densities
Oh, [A#]
[E] oh, [C#m]
[B]
oh
[A] I'm not a prophet or a stone-age [Bm] man
[A] Just a waddle with potential of a superman
[E] And I'm living on
[A] Telling to the logic of Homo sapiens
I'll take my eyes from the great salvation
[E] Of the abusive faith
If
[G] [C] I don't explain what you want to know
[D] You can tell me all about it on the next podcast
[E] Sinking in [C#m] the quicksand [A] of my thoughts
I ain't got the power
[E] anymore
[F#] Don't [E]
[B] believe [Cm]
in [C#m] yourself
Don't [E] deceive [Em] with [B] belief
[Fm] Knowledge comes in [B] [F#m] densities
Oh, [E]
[C#m]
[B]
[E] [B] oh, oh
Believe [C]
in [C#m] yourself
Don't [E] deceive [Em] with [B] belief
Knowledge [Fm] comes in [F#m] densities
Oh, [A#] [C#]
oh, oh
[E] [C#m]

[D#] Robert Smith, everybody
