Intro:  Em  C  Em9

Em  C  Em9  Am  Em
Bowie’s in space
Bowie’s in spa-he-hase
Whatcha doin’ out there, man?
That’s pretty freaky, Bowie.
I hear that space is a pretty freaky place
Doesn't it get quite cold in the depths of space, Bowie?
Do you need my jumper, Bowie?
Does the space cold make your nipples go all pointy?
Do you use your pointy nipples as telescopic antenna transmitting data back to Earth?
Data back to Earth
(Data back to Earth)
I bet you do, you freaky old bastard, you.
Do you have one really funky sequined space suit, Bowie?
Or do you have several ch-ch-ch-ch-changes?
Do they smoke grass up there in space, man?
Or do they smoke Astro-Turf?

Oh yeah! Roll me up the Astroturf!
