MEMORY OF A FREE FESTIVAL from Space Oddity
INTRO: F G C F G
F G C F G C
C F C G Dm7
G Dm7 G Dm7
G Dm7
The Children of the summer's end
Em Am
Gathered in the dampened grass
Bm Bb
We played Our songs and felt the London sky
C G
Resting on our hands it was God's land
C G Dm7
It was ragged and naive it was Heaven
G Dm7
Touch, We touched the very soul
Em Am
Of holding each and every life
Bm Bb
We claimed the very source of joy ran through
C G
It didn't, but it seemed that way
C G Eb C
I kissed a lot of people that day
C Em
Oh, to capture just one drop
C7 Am7 F
Of all the ecstasy that swept that afternoon
G F C
To paint that love upon a white balloon
Em C7
And fly it from the toppest top of all the tops
Am7 F
That man has pushed beyond his brain
G F C
Satori must be something just the same
D Dmaj7
We scanned the skies with rainbow eyes
D7 D6 G6
And saw machines of every shape and size
A G D
We talked with tall Venusians passing through
Dmaj7
And Peter tried to climb aboard
D7 D6
But the Captain shook his head
G6
And away they soared
A G D
Climbing through the ivory vibrant cloud
A G D
Someone passed some bliss among the crowd
A G
And We walked back to the road, unchained
WEIRD BIT
D C G D
The sun machine is coming down, and we're gonna have a party, ah ah ah
D C G D
The sun machine is coming down, and we're gonna have a party, ah ah ah
D C G D
The sun machine is coming down, and we're gonna have a party, ah ah ah
D C G D
The sun machine is coming down, and we're gonna have a party, ah ah ah
Repeat until fade out...
