The Jean Genie by David Bowie ----------- Tabbed by Frederic Maquet (f.maquet@ic.ac.uk)
This is an extremely fun song to play. It's quite easy to make it sound quite like the original. The tab is 90% correct, as I taped this off the radio. Therefore, I'm not quite sure about the intro (although, it should be that, if I remember correctly), and I think in the extended version there might be a longer solo (probably based on E blues),but then again, there might not be one...Enjoy!

Verse 2: --------
Sits like an adder, he smiles like a reptile, She love him, she love him, but just for a short while, She's scratching the sand, won't let go of his hand, He says he's a beautician, he sells you nutrition, Keeps off your dead hair and making a bundle, (<-not sure about lyrics)
Poor little greenie, ooo oohooo
Chorus 2: Same as chorus 1 ---------
Verse 3: --------
He's so simple minded, he can't drive his module, He bites on the neon and sleeps in a capsule
