Panic in Detroit Lyrics

PANIC IN DETROIT from Aladdin Sane
INTRO: B5 G5 A5 B5 G5 A5
He looked a lot like Che Guevara drove a diesel van
Kept his gun in quiet seclusion such a humble man
The only survivor of the National People's Gang
Panic in Detroit I asked for an autograph
He wanted to stay home I wish someone would phone
Panic in Detroit
He laughed at accidental sirens that broke the evening gloom
The police had warned of repercussions they followed none too soon
A trickle of strangers were all that were left alive
Panic in Detroit I asked for an autograph
He wanted to stay home I wish someone would phone
Panic in Detroit
Putting on some clothes I made my way to school, ooh ooh
And I found my teacher crouching in his overalls
I screamed and ran to smash my favourite slot machine, ooh ooh
Bm C D G D G...with solo tab
And jumped the silent cars that slept at traffic lights
Having scored a trillion dollars made a run back home
Found him slumped across the table a gun and me alone
I ran to the window looked for a plane or two
Panic in Detroit he'd left me an autograph
Let me collect dust I wish someone would phone
Panic in Detroit
Panic in Detroit
Panic in Detroit
SOLO: B5 G5 A5...repeat until fade
RUN DOWN BEHIND THE VERSE: The bass and guitar playing in harmony together:
CHORUS: The small lick going on behind the chorus, two guitars:
Solo: Two guitars...
