David Bowie - God Knows I'm Good: chords

      Am                  Am7/G         Bm7         A7
I was walking through the counters of a national concern
      F/C                C              G     C
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    C
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  C
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  C
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

Then she moved toward the exit clutching
tightly at her paper bag
Perspiration trickled down her forehead
And her heart it leapt inside her as
the hand laid on her shoulder
She was led away bewildered and amazed

Through her deafened ears the cash machines
were shrieking on the counter
As her escort asked her softly for her name
And a crowd of honest people rushed to help a tired old lady
Who had fainted to the whirling wooden floor

Chorus::
Crying God knows I'm good
God knows I'm good
God knows I'm good
Surely God won't look the other way
God knows I'm good
God knows I'm good
God knows I'm good
Surely God won't look the other way
Hey!
