David Bowie - Rubber Band

Intro is played on a tuba.

       Am
Rubber Band
                                              F
There's a rubber band that plays tunes out of tune
                                 F#/D7
In the library garden Sunday afternoon
                                      G      F   D
While a little chappie waves a golden wand

       Am
Rubber Band
                                 F
In 1910 I was so handsome and so strong
                                            D7/F#
My moustache was stiffly waxed and one foot long
                                            G      F  D
And I loved a girl while you played teatime tunes


Am          D            Am         D           G
Dear Rubber Band, you're playing my tune out of tune
Am    C    G
  oh

       Am
Rubber Band
                                         F
Won't you play a haunting theme again to me
                                          F#/D7
While I eat my scones and drink my cup of tea
                                       G      F  D
The sun is warm but it's a lonely afternoon

       D     B
Rubber Band
      D                 B                D     B
How I wish that I could join your Rubber Band
         D              B                    D    B
We could play in lively parks throughout the land
        D           B                (Riff below)
And one Sunday afternoon, I'd find my love

      C#m riff
Rubber Band,
                             A riff twice
In the '14-'18 war I went to sea
                                            F#7/Ab riff twice
Thought my Sunday love was waiting home for me
                                           Bm     A  F#
And now she's married to the leader of the band
