STARMAN    (intro) (midi)    (sample)
 

    F – C        F                - C

                        Hey la la.       La la la.                

   Dm                                                                                            C

1.     Didn't know what time is was, and the lights were low-ow-ow

                                                 G

    I leaned back on my radio-o-o, 

                                                     - G7                                         C -D#-F

   Some cat was laying down some    rock'n'roll, "lotta soul", he said.  

   Dm                                                             C

2.     Then the loud sound did seem to fa-a-ade,

                                                                                  G

    came back like a slow voice on a wave of pha-a-ase,

                                                    G7                      - E - D

    that weren't no D.J., that was hazy cosmic jive.  

                  C           Am                             Em                         G

There's a starman waiting in the sky, he'd like to come and meet us, 

             G7

but he thinks he'd blow our minds.  

                  C           Am                              Em                  G

There's a starman waiting in the sky, he's told us not to blow it, 

                    G7

'cause he knows it's all worth-while, he told me:

F                 Fm                 - C                A                         

    Let the children lose it,        let the children use it,

Dm                G7                    

    let all the children boogie.

    - F – C – G – C – F - C – G 

   Dm                                                                             C

3.      I had to phone someone, so I picked on you-ou-ou,

                                                                        G

    hey, that's far out, so you heard tim too-oo-oo,

                                                 G7                            C   - D# - F

    switch on the T.V., we may pick him on channel two.  

  Dm                                                                        C

4.      Look out your window, I can see his ligh-igh-ight,

                                                                      G

    if we can sparkle he may land tonigh-igh-ight,

                                               G7                                   - E - D

    don't tell your papa or he'll get us locked up in fright.   

+ CHORUS        + CHORUS

   - F – C – G – C – F - C – G – C  (3x) …

   La la la, la la la la, la la…..
