Arranged for a ukulele medley. 

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

CHORUS:

Sailors, fighting in the dance hall
 Am      Fm                    G  Gm                  Dm

Fm                   C      F                    G
Take a look at the Lawman, beating up the wrong guy
Am       Fm                     G Gm                          Dm
Oh man!  Wonder if he'll ever know   he's in the best selling show
Fm                Am   C+  Am7  D7  F  Gsus4  D
Is there life on Mars?

         Gm             D/F#                   G     
And the papers want to know whose shirts you wear,

Now the workers have struck for fame Cause Lennon's on sale again
          G/f#                  Dm/F
See the mice in their million hordes
       E7                   Am
From Ibeza to the Norfolk Broads

To my mother, my dog and clowns

But the film is a saddening bore
           Ab                 Eb
`Cause I wrote it ten times before

This is Major Tom to ground con-trol, I'm stepping through the door
        Fm              C/E           F   
And I'm floating in the most peculiar way
