This is the first tab I submit after the death of the Duke, I just can't get over it but I really believe
this is a good way to pay tribute to him.
Station To Station is one of my favourite Bowie albums, and TVC15 is certainly one of the greatest tunes
on it, so I thought it was a pity not to have a proper tab for it. There is a nice anecdote regarding
this song... Legend has it that it was inspired by a completely stoned Iggy Pop who thought that Bowie's
TV was going to swallow his girlfriend. This got the Duke to write a song about a holographic TV named
TVC15.
Rate the tab with 5 stars for more Bowie anecdotes... and leave a comment if you wish.
Enjoy the song!

Up every evening 'bout half eight or nine
I give my complete attention to a very good friend of mine
He's quadraphonic, he's a, he's got more channels
So hologramic, oh my TVC15
I brought my baby home, she, she sat around forlorn
She saw my TVC15, baby's gone, she
She crawled right in, oh my
She crawled right in my
So hologramic, oh my TVC15
Oh, so demonic, oh my TVC15
Maybe if I pray every, each night I sit there pleading
"Send back my dream test baby, she's my main feature"
My TVC15, he just stares back unblinking
So hologramic, oh my TVC15
One of these nights I may just
Jump down that rainbow way, be with my baby, then
We'll spend some time together
So hologramic, oh my TVC15
My baby's in there someplace, love's rating in the sky
So hologramic, oh my TVC15
Transition, transmission,
transition, transmission
Oh my TVC15, oh oh, TVC15
Oh my TVC15, oh oh, TVC15
Oh my TVC15, oh oh, TVC15
Oh my TVC15, oh oh, TVC15
Maybe if I pray every, each night I sit there pleading
"Send back my dream test baby, she's my main feature"
My TVC15, he just stares back unblinking
So hologramic, oh my TVC15
One of these nights I may just
Jump down that rainbow way, be with my baby, then
We'll spend some time together
So hologramic, oh my TVC15
My baby's in there someplace, love's rating in the sky
So hologramic, oh my TVC15
