F         Am/E                   Adim/Eb
   It's a god-awful small affair

       D                        Gm
To the girl with the mousy hair

        Bb/F                   C7
But her mummy is yelling "No"

                                 F
And her daddy has told her to go

        Am/E                        Adim/Eb
But her friend is nowhere to be seen

        D                               Gm
Now she walks through her sunken dream

       Bb/F                          C7
To the seat with the clearest view

                                      Ab/Eb
And she's hooked to the silver screen

        Eaug                      Fm
But the film is a saddening bore

          Gb                         Db
For she's lived it ten times or more

          Aaug                      Bbm
She could spit in the eyes of fools

        Db7/Cb
As they ask her to focus on




Bb      Eb
Sailors fighting in the dance hall

Gm7        Gbaug                 F   Fm
   Oh man! Look at those cavemen go

                        Cm7
It's the freakiest show

Ebm7
  Take a look at the Lawman

Eb
Beating up the wrong guy

Gm7       Gbaug                    F  Fm
  Oh man! Wonder if he'll ever know

                              Cm7
He's in the best selling show

Ebm7               Gm7    Gbaug   Bb/f
  Is there life on Mars?
