Song: Even a fool learns to love
Artist: David Bowie
English Lyrics: David Bowie
Music: Claude Francois and Jacques Revaux
Tabbed by DJ 5th Jun 2015
In 1968, before he was really famous, David Bowie was employed
by publishers to write an English lyric to a French pop hit
called 'Comme d'habitude'. Bowie's submission was unsuccessful,
and the publishers used a lyric by Paul Anka instead,
his version was called 'My way'.
Three years later Bowie partly based his own hit 'Life on Mars'
on a similar chord sequence.
More information and the first verse of Bowie's demo recording
at this link: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/profiles/

The demo first verse differs a bit from Bowie's typed lyrics,
for the tab I've gone with what he sang on the demo.
I've included two tab versions: Firstly in Claude Francois'
(and Bowie's demo) key of F, and the second tab is in
Frank Sinatra's recorded key of D.
PLEASE NOTE: As I haven't heard the full demo, I've done my
best to suggest how the chords and lyrics might have scanned.

The demo version which Bowie overdubbed at his own home
over Claude Francois's 'Comme d'habitude' recording.

The clown ...turned a - round,
Cm/Eb D7 D7sus4

Am7 Gm7 C
With thunderous ap - plause, looked down from a - bove,
C/Bb Am Am7 Dm Dm7
On a clown and an angel so much in love,
Gm7 C
I'll stay with my dream, it takes such a dream,
C7 Gm/F F
And even a fool---- learns to love
[Verse 4]
F Am/E
That day, ...that hateful day,
Cm/Eb D7 D7sus4
The joke turned stale, ...the game was over,
Gm Gm7/F
Those spiteful words, "Oh, go a - way!
C7/E Fsus4 F
Who wants to play? It's getting late now!"
F/C F Fmaj7 Cm7/F F7
My world, ...my funny world,
Bb Bbm6
Had lost its mask, and shown a broken heart,
F/C C C7 Gm/F F
A time, a sour time, when even a fool---- learns to love
[Verse 5]
Am C7 F Fmaj7 Cm7/F
But, oh, how I dreamed, a marvelous dream,

Thanks for the story (i didn't know !) and also for your work for the chords of course !!!
+1
Bowie's lyric has all the hallmarks of his pre- Major Tom days, when he was still heavily influenced by Anthony Newley's style.
Here's another little video clip about this cultural curio, a nice stripped down live performance of 'Life on mars', followed by Bowie talking light- heartedly about 'Only a fool learns to love'.
