God Knows I'm Good by David Bowie
God Knows I'm Good
INTRO:
G Cadd9 G F/C C
G Cadd9 G F/C C
VERSE 1:
Am Am7/G Bm7 A7
I was walking through the counters of a national concern
F/C C G Cadd9
And a cash machine was spitting by my shoulder
Am Am7/G Bm7 A7
And I saw the multitude of faces, honest, rich and clean
F/C C G Cadd9
As the merchandise exchanged and money roared
C G Am Am7/G
And a woman hot with worry slyly slipped a tin of stewing steak
D/F# C G Cadd9
Into the paper bag at her side
C G Am
And her face was white with fear in case her actions
Am7/G
Were observed
D/F# C G Cadd9
So she closed her eyes to keep her conscience blind
CHORUS:
Am Am7/G
Crying God knows I'm good
D7/F# F
God knows I'm good
F E
God knows I'm good
Am C/G E
God may look the other way today
Am Am7/G
God knows I'm good
D7/F# F
God knows I'm good
F E
God knows I'm good
Am C/G E
God may look the other way today
VERSE 2:
Am Am7/G Bm7 A7
Then she moved toward the exit clutching tightly at her paper bag
F/C C G Cadd9
Perspiration trickled down her forehead
Am Am7/G Bm7 A7
And her heart it leapt inside her as the hand laid on her shoulder
F/C C G Cadd9
She was led away bewildered and amazed
C G Am Am7/G
Through her deafened ears the cash machines were shrieking on the counter
D/F# C G
As her escort asked her softly for her name
C G Am Am7/G
And a crowd of honest people rushed to help a tired old lady
D/F# C G
Who had fainted to the whirling wooden floor
CHORUS:
Am Am7/G
Crying God knows I'm good
D7/F# F
God knows I'm good
F E
God knows I'm good
Am C/G E
Surely God won't look the other way
Am Am7/G
God knows I'm good
D7/F# F
God knows I'm good
F E
God knows I'm good
Am C/G E
Surely God won't look the other way
