David Bowie - Loving the Alien: chords

               Em7
Watching them come and go
                      D
The Templars and the Saracens
                       Cmaj7
They're travelling the holy land
         D          D#dim7
Opening telegrams, wohoo
                   Em7
Torture comes and torture goes
                       D
Knights who'd give you anything
                        Cmaj7
They bear the cross of Coeur de Leon
                   D             D#dim7
Salvation for the mirror blind, wohoo

            Cm
But if you pray
          A#
all your sins are hooked
F/A
upon
     Fm
the sky
  Dm          Am          Fm        G
Pray and the heathen lie will disappear

Chorus:
  C
Prayers they hide
     D
the saddest view
                 D#/A#
Believing the strangest things,
           D7sus4
loving the alien
           C                      D
And your prayers they break the sky in two
                 D#/A#
Believing the strangest things,
            D7sus4
loving the alien

Thinking of a different time
Palestine a modern problem
Bounty and your wealth in land
Terror in a best laid plan
Watching them come and go
Tomorrows and the yesterdays
Christians and the unbelievers
Hanging by the cross and nail

But if you pray
all your sins are hooked
upon
the sky
Pray and the heathen lie will disappear

Chorus

You pray til the break of dawn
(Believing the strangest things,
loving the alien)
And you’ll believe you’re loving the alien
(Believing the strangest things,
loving the alien)
(Believing the strangest things,
loving the alien)
