Key: F

Verse:

F      F/E              Cm/Eb         D7                 Gm
It's a god-awful small affair to the girl with the mousy hair
       Gm7              C/E            C                 F
But her mummy is yelling no and her daddy as told her to go
         F/E                   Cm/Eb
But her friend is nowhere to be seen
        D7                       Gm
now she walks through her sunken dream
       Gm7                     C/E
To the seat with the clearest view
          C                    Ab
and she's hooked to the silver screen
       Am(maj7)                Fm
But the film is a saddening bore
          Ab7                   C#
For she's lived it ten times or more
          F7                 A#m           C#
She could spit in the eyes of fools as they ask her to focus on

Chorus:

A#       D#                      Gm
Sailors, fighting in the dance hall
       Gm(maj7)              F   Fm                 Cm7
Oh man! look at those cavemen go,    it's a freakest show
D#m7               A#      D#                     Gm
Take a look at the lawman, beating up the wrong guy
       Gm(maj7)                  F   Fm                        Cm7
Oh man!  Wonder if he'll ever know     he's in the best selling show
D#m7             Gm  Gm(maj7)  Gm7  C7  F  D7  Gm  F7(dim)  Am  C7  D#m7
Is there life on Mars?


Verse:

F       F/E               Cm/Eb
It's on America's tortured brow
          D7                Gm
Mickey Mouse has grown up a cow
        Gm7                      C/E
Now the workers have struck for fame
C                           F
Cause Lennon's on sale again
F/E                               Cm/Eb
See the mice in their million hordes
         D7                  Gm
From Ibeza to the Norfolk Broads
       Gm7                  C/E
Rule Brittania is out of bounds
C                            Ab
To my mother, my dog and clowns
       Am(maj7)                Fm
But the film is a saddening bore
            Ab7                 C#
'Cause I wrote it ten times before
           F7                  A#m
It's about to be writ again
     C#
As I ask you to focus on

A#       D#                      Gm
Sailors, fighting in the dance hall

Take a look at the lawman, beating up the wrong guy
