If he was from Venus would he feed us with a spoon
If he was from Mars then that be cool
FaddG
Standin' right on campus would he stamp us in a file
Hangin' down in Memphis all the while
FaddG
The A9 in verses is played the same as shown above for the intro.
Children by the millions wait for Alex Chilton
When he comes round
Sayin' I'm in love.... (This part is the same as intro)
(
??)
Never travel too far
Without a little Big Star
That first chord may actually be an Eb, not a Cm7, in which case you
should play it:
X 6 5 3 4 3
But that essentially covers all parts of the song. I haven't tabbed out
the lead (anyone else want to give it a shot??), which is played over the
chords from the intro. Hope someone finds this useful.
