Song: Oh! You Pretty Things
Album: Hunky Dory
Capo 1
FCGDm
Wake up you sleepy head put on some clothes, shake up your bed
FCGDm
Put another log on the fire for me I've made some breakfast and coffee
FC
I look out my window and what do I see
A7DmBb
A crack in the sky and a hand reaching down to me
BC
All the nightmares came today
F
And it looks as though they're here to stay
FCGDm
What are we coming to no room for me, no fun for you
FCGDm
I think about a world to come where the books were found by the Golden Ones
FC
Written in pain, written in awe
A7DmBb
By a puzzled man who questioned What we were here for
BC
All the strangers came today
F
And it looks as though they're here to stay
Chorus:
FAmDm
Oh, you pretty things
CBb7F
Don't you know you're driving your mothers and fathers insane
FAmDm
Oh, you pretty things
CBb7F
Don't you know you're driving your mothers and fathers insane
GCBbF
Let me make it plain you gotta make way for the Homo Superior
FCGDm
Look out at your children see their faces in golden rays
FCGDm
Don't kid yourself they belong to you they're the start of the coming race
FC
The earth is a bitch we've finished our news
A7DmBb
Homo Sapiens have outgrown their use
BC
All the strangers came today
F
And it looks as though they're here to stay
Chorus
