David Bowie - Life On Mars?: chords

E       E/D#                  E/D
It's a god - awful small affair
        C#7                 F#m
to the girl with the mousy hair,
        F#m7/E                B7
But her mummy is yelling, 'No!',
                               E
And her Daddy has told her to go,
         E/D#                    E/D
But her friend is nowhere to be seen,
         C#                       F#m
Now she walks through her sunken dream,
       F#m7/E                      B7
To the seat  with the clearest view,
                                     G/D
And she's hooked to the silver screen,
        B+/D#                    Em
But the film  is a saddening bore,
          G7/F                      C
For she's lived it ten times or more,
          E+/G#                Am
She could spit in the eyes of fools,
        C7/A#
As they ask her to focus on.

Chorus:
 A       D                        F#m7
Sailors fighting in the dance hall,
          F+                    E Em
Oh, man! Look at those cavemen go,
                    Bm7 Dm7
It's the freakiest show,
                    A      D                      F#m7
Take a look at the Lawman beating up the wrong guy,
          F+                    E Em
Oh, man! Wonder if he'll ever know
                          Bm7 Dm7
He's in the best selling show?
                 F#m
Is there life on Mars?

It's on America's tortured brow
That Mickey Mouse has grown up a cow
Now the workers have struck for fame
'Cause Lennon's on sale again
See the mice in their million hordes
From Ibiza to the Norfolk Broads
Rule Britannia is out of bounds
To my mother, my dog, and clowns
But the film is a saddening bore
Because I wrote it ten times or more
It's about to be writ again
As I ask you to focus on

Chorus
