Life On Mars
David Bowie
[F] It's a [Am] god-awful small [F7] affair to the [D7] girl with the mousy hair
[Gm] But her [Bb] mummy is yelling "No" [C] and her [C7] daddy has told her to go [F]
But her [Am] friend is nowhere to be [F7] seen now she [D7] walks through her sunken dream [Gm] To the [Bb] seat with the clearest view [C] and she's [C7] hooked to the silver screen [Ab] But the [Ab+] film is a saddening bore [Fm] for she's [Ab7] lived it ten times or more [Db] She could [F7] spit in the eyes of fools [Bbm] as they [Db7] ask her to focus on
[Bb] Sailors [Eb] fighting in the dance hall
[Gm] Oh man! [Ebm] Look at those cavemen [F] go
[Fm] It's the freakiest [Cm7] show [Ebm]
Take a look at the [Bb] Lawman [Eb] beating up the wrong guy [Gm] Oh man! [F#] Wonder if he'll ever know [F]
[Fm] He's in the best-selling [Cm7] show
[Ebm] Is there life on [Gm] Mars? [Bb+] [Bb] [C]
[F] [D7] [Gm] [E7] [Am] [C7] [Bbm7]
[F] It's on [Am] America's tortured brow
[F7] That Mickey [D7] Mouse has grown up a cow
[Gm] Now the [Bb] workers have struck for fame [C] 'Cause [C7] Lennon's on sale again [F] See the [Am] mice in their million hordes
[F7] From I-[D7]-biza to the Norfolk Broads
[Gm] Rule Bri-[Bb]-tannia is out of bounds
[C] to my [C7] mother, my dog and clowns [Ab]
But the [Ab+] film is a saddening bore
[Fm] 'Cause I [Ab7] wrote it ten times or more [Db]
It's a-[F7]-bout to be writ again [Bbm] as I [Db7] ask you to focus on
[Bb] Sailors [Eb] fighting in the dance hall
[Gm] Oh man! [Ebm] Look at those cavemen [F] go
[Fm] It's the freakiest [Cm7] show [Ebm]
Take a look at the [Bb] Lawman [Eb] beating up the wrong guy [Gm] Oh man! [F#] Wonder if he'll ever know [F]
[Fm] He's in the best-selling [Cm7] show [Ebm]
Is there life on [Gm] Mars? [Bb+] [Bb] [C]
[F] [D7] [Gm] [Bb] [Eb].... [Ebm] [Bb]
