Wild Eyed Boy From Freecloud Chords by David Bowie

[Em] _ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ [D] Sullen face, [A] the village [F#] settles down _ _ [Bm] Undetected by [A#] the stars _ _ _ _ _
[A] And the hangman plays the mandolin _ [D] Before he goes [F#m] to sleep _
_ _ [C] _ And [B] the last thing [E] on his mind _ _ _ _
[A] Is the wild-eyed boy imprisoned _ [D] Neath a covered wooden shelf
[C#m] _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ Holds [Bm] the rope into [A#] his hand
_ _ _ _ [E] _
_ [A] Blows his pipe of _ smoulders, Blankets [D] smoke into the [F#m] room _
_ [D] _ _ And [Bm] the day will end [Gm] for some _ [E] _ _ _
_ [C] As the [G] night _ begins [F] to blend _ _ _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ [Bm] _ [E] Staring _ _
_ [D] _ _ through [F#m] the [D] message in [F#] his eyes _ [Bm] Lies a solitary [Gm] son
_ _ _ _ From [A] the mountain _ called Free Cloud Where [D] the eagles dare not [A] fly _ _
_ [C] _ And [Bm] the patience in [Gm] his sigh _ _ _ _ _
_ [A] Gives no [A#] indication _ for the [F#] _ townsman to decide _
[D] _ _ So the [Bm] village _ [Em] dreadful _ _ [Gm] yawns
_ [A#] _
_ [A] Pronouncing gross diversion As [D] the label for the dog
[A] _ _
Oh, [D] _ _ it's the [Bm] madness in [Gm] his eyes _ _ _ _
As [C] he breaks the night to [G] cry _
It's [D] really _ _ _ [F#m] me, _
_ [F#] _ _ [Bm] really you and really [Gm] me _ _ _ _ _
_ [A] It's so hard for us to really [D] _ be
_ _ It's really me, _ _ _ really [Bm] you and really [Gm] me _ _ _ _ _
[A] You'll lose me, though I'm always [D] really free _ _ _
And [F#] _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
the mountain moves its eyes To the world of real life
[A#] Where the snow had saved [G#] a place _ [C] For the wild-eyed boy [E] from Free Cloud _
And _ [C] the village dreadful cried _ As the rope began to rise
[Gm] For a smile stayed [G#] on the face _ [C] Of the wild-eyed boy [E] from Free Cloud
_ _ And [G] the weary white crowd [C] clutched the heart of the crowd
As the [G] bow was smashed down from [C] the mountain's hand
[Am] And the magic in the stare of [C] the wild-eyed boy
[Am] Said, stop, Free Cloud, [C] they won't sleep to [E] cut me down
_ _ _ Oh, _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [C] the cottages [F] fell [C] like the pain caught hell
[A#] With the tears [F] on the face [C] of the wise boy
He came trembling [F]
down [C] to the rumbling [F] ground
[A#] And the [F] visionary [C] mystic of peace, love
[D] _ Stumbled back to cry [F#] among the clouds
_ _ [Bm] _ _ _ [E] Kicking _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [A] _
_ back the pebbles _ [D] from the Free Cloud mountain [C] trail _
