Lady Stardust

[Intro]  A  E

A     C#7           F#m            D
People stared at the makeup on his face
A              F#m          E             C#7
Laughed at his long black hair, his animal grace
F#m            D
The boy in the bright blue jeans
A                 C#7
Jumped up on the stage
A                E
And lady stardust sang his songs
D               E
Of darkness and disgrace

A            E        D        E/D
And he was alright, the band was altogether
A            E        D          E
Yes he was alright, the song went on forever
        Em        Em/Eb
And he was awful nice
Em/D                Em/C#
Really quite out of sight
          A   E     D   E/D
And he sang all night long

A       C#7                F#m
Femme fatales emerged from shadows
              D
To watch this creature fair
A          F#m
Boys stood upon their chairs
E                      C#7
To make their point of view
F#m       D           A             C#7
I smiled sadly for a love I could not obey
A              E
Lady stardust sang his songs
D           E
Of darkness and dismay

A             E        D                  E/D
And he was alright, the band was altogether
A             E        D                  E
Yes he was alright, his song went on forever
        Em        Em/Eb
And he was up all night
Em/D            Em/C#
Really quite paradise
           A   E     D   E/D
And he sang all night long

D          D#dim            E
Ooh, how I sighed when they asked if I knew his name

A             E        D             E/D
And he was alright, the band was altogether
A             E        D              E
Yes he was alright, his song went on forever
       Em            Em/Eb
And he was up all night
Em/D            Em/C#
Really quite paradise
           A   E     D   E/D
And he sang all night long
