Life on Mars

E      E/Eb            Bm/D          C#7                  F#m     
It's a god-awful small affair to the girl with the mousy hair   
         F#m/E             B/Eb                               E     
But her mother is yelling "No" and her father as told her to go   
          E/Eb                  Bm/D     
But her friend is nowhere to be seen   
        C#7                       F#m   
As she walks through her sunken dream   
        F#m/E                  B/Eb     
To the seat with the clearest view    
                                G   
And she's hooked to the silver screen   
          G               Em   
But the film is a saddening bore   
            F                   C   
For she's lived it ten times or more   
           E7                   Am          C    
She could spit in the eyes of fools as they ask her to focus on

It's on Amerika's tortured brow

Mickey Mouse has grown up a cow   
         F#m/E             B/Eb

See the mice in their million hordes   
        C#7                       F#m   
From Ibeza to the Norfolk Broads   
     F#m/E                  B/Eb     
Rule Brittania is out of bounds   
                             G   
To my mother, my dog and clowns   
          G                Em   
But the film is a saddening bore   
           F                   C   
 Cause I wrote it ten times before   
          E7                   Am             
It's about to be writ again   
     C   
As I ask you to focus on  .... Chorus
