Life On Mars?

	  		
Verse 1:
A          C#m                  F#    
  It's a god-awful small affair 
          F# 
To the girl with the mousy hair 
Bm           D                 E 
  But her mummy is yelling "No" 
        E 
And her daddy has told her to go 
A          C#m                       F# 
  But her friend is nowhere to be seen 
          F#                             Bm  
Now she walks through her sunken dream 
Bm          A#                   D 
  To the seat with the clearest view 
          E 
And she's hooked to the silver screen 

Pre-Chorus

C        E                         Am 
   But the film is a saddening bore 
             A# 
For she's lived it ten times or more 
F           A                        Dm 
 She could spit in the eyes of fools 
        D# 
As they ask her to focus on 



D          G 
Sailors fighting in the dance hall 
Bm       A#                  A 
Oh man! look at those cavemen go 
Am                   Em 
 It's the freakiest show 
Gm                     D 
   Take a look at the lawman 
G 
Beating up the wrong guy 
Bm         A#                   A 
Oh man! Wonder if he'll ever know 
Am                           Em 
  He's in the best selling show 
Gm                   Bm       A#  D  E 
   Is there life on Mars? 



Verse 2:
A          C#m                     F# 
  It's on America's tortured brow 
           F# 
That Mickey Mouse has grown up a cow 
Bm         A#                         D 
  Now the workers have struck for fame 
      E 
'Cause Lennon's on sale again 
A          C#m                     F# 
  See the mice in their million hordes 
        F# 
  From Ibeza to the norfolk broads 
Bm              D 
  Rule Britannia is out of bounds 
E 
 To my mother, my dog, and clowns 

Pre-Chorus

C        E                           Am 
   But the film is a saddening bore 
             A# 
For I've writ it ten times or more 
F            A                    Dm 
   It's about to be writ again 
            D# 
As I ask you to focus on 

 


D          G 
Sailors fighting in the dance hall 
Bm       A#                  A 
Oh man! look at those cavemen go 
Am                   Em 
 It's the freakiest show 
Gm                     D 
   Take a look at the lawman 
G 
Beating up the wrong guy 
Bm         A#                   A 
Oh man! Wonder if he'll ever know 
Am                           Em 
  He's in the best selling show 
Gm                   Bm   A#  D  E 
   Is there life on Mars? 
                        D 
 Is there life on Mars?
