Seven Live at the Elysée Montmartre Paris on 14th October 1999 by David Bowie Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 2020

[Intro]
We'll do a new song first; it's very gentle, it's called "Seven"

[Verse 1]
I forgot what my father said
I forgot what he said
I forgot what my mother said
As we laid upon your bed

[Pre-Chorus]
City full of flowers
A city full of rain

[Chorus]
I got seven days to live my life
Or seven ways to die

[Verse 2]
I forgot what my brother said
I forgot what he said
Really don't regret anything at all
I remember how we wept
[Pre-Chorus]
On a bridge of violent people
I was small enough to cry

[Chorus]
I got seven days to live my life
Or seven ways to die

[Pre-Chorus]
Hold my face before you
Still my trembling heart

[Chorus]
I got seven days to live my life
Or seven ways to die

[Verse 3]
The gods forgot that they made me
Well I forgot them too
I listen to the shadows
And I play among their graves

[Pre-Chorus]
My heart was never broken
My patience never tried
[Chorus]
I got seven days to live my life
Or seven ways to die
I got seven days to live my life
And seven ways to die

[Outro]
Seven
Seven
Seven
Seven
Seven
Seven
Seven, oh
Seven
Seven
This is, uh, this also another quite old one from the album Lodger, for all you closet Lodger fans...
