Written by David Bowie

	  		Intro: Bm  E  A 

F#m                                   E 
Inside every teenage girl there's a fountain 
F#m                                           E 
Inside every young pair of pants there's a mountain 
Bm            E           A                   F#m 
Inside every mother's eyes is Tommy Tinkrem's bed 
Bm            E           A             F#m    E 
Inside every candidate waits a grateful dead 

tabchorus
Bm F# G I make it a thing, when I'm on my own to relieve myself Bm F# G I make it a thing, when I gazelle on stage to believe in myself Bm F# E I make it a thing, to glance in window panes and look pleased with myself G E Bm Yeah, and pretend I'm walking home

(Bm E A) F#m E I took it so bad, I sat in the correction room F#m E Took me a fag, and a kick in the moon Bm E Well, I ain't gonna suck no radar wing A F#m Because inside this tin is tin Bm E A F#m E Would you like to techno-plate 'cause I'm your candidate, oh yeah
tabchorus
Bm It's a matter of life F# G And the way you walk, you've got a BrylCream queen Bm It's a matter of tact F# G In the things you talk, that keeps his passport clean Bm A matter of fact F# E That a cock ain't a cock on a twelve inch screen G E Bm So I'll pretend I'm walking home
tab
(Bm E A) F#m E You don't have to scream a lot to keep an age in tune F#m E You don't have to scream a lot to predict monsoons Bm E You don't have to paint my contact black A F#m Now I've hustled a pair of jeans Bm E A F#m E Do I have to give your money back when I'm the Fuhrerling?
tabchorus
Bm I'll make you a deal F# G I'll say I came from Earth and my tongue is taped Bm I'll make you a deal F# G You can get your kicks on the candidate Bm I'll make you a deal F# E For your future's sake, I'm the candidate G E Bm Lets pretend we're walking home
tab
Bm E A Bm Uh-huh, uhhh E I'm the candidate A Bm E Make way for the candidate A Bm E A Vote now for the candidate (Bm E A)
