Life on Mars Chords by David Bowie

[Start]

[Verse]
F                             
■ It's a Godawful small affair
D7                         Gm  
To the girl with the mousy hair
Bb                       C7
But her mummy is yelling No
C             C7           F    
And her daddy has told her to go
                  Am                
But her friend is nowhere to be seen
                                 Dm    Gm
Now she walks through her sunken dream ■ 
                 Bb           C7  
To the seat with the clearest view
                    C          Eb    
And she's hooked to the silver screen
E                           F   
But the film is a saddening bore
Gb                           Db     
For she's lived it ten times or more
                           Bb      
She could spit in the eyes of fools
Bb                         
As they ask her to focus on


[Chorus]
Eb                            Gm  
Sailors fighting in the dance hall
                     D7      F 
Oh man Look at those cavemen go
                   Cm  
It's the freakiest show
Eb                Bb        
■  Take a look at the lawman
Eb                   Gm 
Beating up the wrong guy
                            F   
Oh man wonder if he'll ever know
                         Cm  
He's in the best selling show
Eb          Ebm7    Gm  
■  Is there life on Mars

[Verse]
                  C            
It's on America's tortured brow
            D7                   Gm 
That Mickey Mouse has grown up a cow
        F            Bb             
Now the workers have struck for fame
C                      F    
'cause Lenin's on sale again
        Am                          
See the mice in their million hordes
     D7                   Gm    
From Ibiza to the Norfolk Broads
     Bb                  C7    
Rule Britannia is out of bounds
      C                 Eb    
To my mother my dog and clowns
        E                       
But the film is a saddening bore
F                              Db  
'cause I wrote it ten times or more
     Am               Bb   
It's about to be writ again
     Bb                 
As I ask you to focus on


[Chorus]
Eb                            Gm  
Sailors fighting in the dance hall
                             F 
Oh man Look at those cavemen go
                   Cm  
It's the freakiest show
Ebm7 Eb     Ebm7        Bb    
■    Take a look at the lawman
Eb                   Gm 
Beating up the wrong guy
                            F   
Oh man wonder if he'll ever know
                         Cm  
He's in the best selling show
Eb                  Gm
