Bowie Song

Flight Of The Conchords

Text File

The is my first tab, i was surprised this wasn't already posted, this is my favorite 
song out there.  There live performance which you can find on youtube is much better than 
was shown in the episode.

I know for a fact that this is not 100% correct but hopefully it will help you to learn 
whole song.

Here it goes!

Intro:
e|--0--|--0--|--0--|
b|--8--|--1--|--3--|
g|--0--|--0--|--0--|  x2
d|--9--|--2--|--4--|
a|--10-|--3--|--5--|
e|--0--|--0--|--0--|

It looks like that on their live performance but I personally think it sound a little 
with a different first chord.

e|--3--|--0--|--0--|
b|--0--|--1--|--3--|
g|--0--|--0--|--0--|  x2
d|--2--|--2--|--4--|
a|--2--|--3--|--5--|
e|--0--|--0--|--0--|

Between each repeat of the chords Jermaine drags his fingers up and then down the E and 
strings on his bass.

Verse:
e|--0--|--0--|--0--|--0--|
b|--8--|--1--|--3--|--1--|
g|--0--|--0--|--0--|--2--|
d|--9--|--2--|--4--|--2--|
a|--10-|--3--|--5--|--0--|
e|--0--|--0--|--0--|--0--|

-or if you prefer-

e|--3--|--0--|--0--|--0--|
b|--0--|--1--|--3--|--1--|
g|--0--|--0--|--0--|--2--|
d|--2--|--2--|--4--|--2--|
a|--2--|--3--|--5--|--0--|
e|--0--|--0--|--0--|--0--|
