G G G G Dm Dm E7 E7 Am Am
It's a god-awful small affair to the girl with the mousy hair
Am Am D D D D G G
But her mummy is yelling no and her daddy has told her to go
G G Dm Dm
But her friend is nowhere to be seen
E7 E7 Am Am
as she walks through her sunken dream
Am Am D D
To the seat with the clearest view
D D Bb Bb
and she's hooked to the silver screen
Bb Bb Gm Gm
But the film is a saddening bore
G# G# Eb Eb
For she's lived it ten times or more
G7 G7 Cm Cm Eb Eb
She could spit in the eyes of fools as they ask her to focus on

CHORUS:
C C F F G G
Sailors fighting in the dance hall
Fm Fm G G Gm Gm Dm Dm
Oh man, look at those cavemen go. It's the freakiest show
Fm Fm C C F F G G
Take a look at the Lawman beating up the wrong guy
Fm Fm G G Gm Gm Dm Dm
Oh man, wonder if he'll ever know. He's in the best selling show
Fm Fm Am Am C+ C+ Am7 Am7 D7 D7
Is there life on Mars
G G G G Dm Dm
It's on Amerika's tortured brow
E7 E7 Am Am
Mickey Mouse has grown up a cow
Am Am D D
Now the workers have struck for fame
D D G G
Cause Lennon's on sale again
G G Dm Dm
See the mice in their million hordes
E7 E7 Am Am
From Ibiza to the Norfolk Broads
Am Am D D
Rule Brittania is out of bounds
D D Bb Bb
To my mother my dog and clowns
Bb Bb Gm Gm
But the film is a saddening bore
G# G# Eb Eb
Cause I wrote it ten times or more
G7 G7 Cm Cm
It's about to be writ again
Eb Eb
As I ask you to focus on

CHORUS:
C C F F G G
Sailors fighting in the dance hall
Fm Fm G G Gm Gm Dm Dm
Oh man, look at those cavemen go. It's the freakiest show
Fm Fm C C F F G G
Take a look at the Lawman beating up the wrong guy
Fm Fm G G Gm Gm Dm Dm
Oh man, wonder if he'll ever know. He's in the best selling show
Fm Fm Am Am C+ C+ Am7 Am7 D7 D7 Am Am G G Fm Fm Fm Fm Fm Fm C C
Is there life on Mars

About this song: Life On Mars

"Life on Mars?" is a song by David Bowie first released in 1971 on the album Hunky Dory and also released as a single. The song—which BBC Radio 2 later called "a cross between a Broadway musical and a Salvador Dalí painting"—featured guest piano work by keyboardist Rick Wakeman. When released as a single in 1973, it reached #3 in the UK and stayed on the chart for thirteen weeks. The song re-entered the UK charts at #55 over 30 years later, largely because of its use in the original British television series Life on Mars. Read more on Last.fm.
