The Man Who Sold The World by David Bowie G# C#m We passed upon the stair, We spoke of was and when G# E Although I wasn't there, He said I was his friend B G# Which came as a surprise, I spoke into his eyes C#m B I thought you died alone, A long long time ago B E Oh no, not me Am E We never lost control B E You're face to face Am G# C#m E C#m With the man who sold the world I laughed and shook his hand, Made my way back home I searched through foreign lands, For years and years I roamed I gazed a gazer's stare, We marched a million hills I must have died alone, A long long time ago B E Who knows? Not me Am E I never lost control B E You're face to face Am G# C#m E C#m With the man who sold the world
