Lady Stardust (Bowie David)

   A      C#            F#mi          D
1. People stared at the makeup on his face
   A              F#mi             E          C#
   Laughed at his long black hair, his animal grace
   F#mi           D
   The boy in the bright blue jeans
   A                C#
   Jumped up on the stage
       A             E
   And lady stardust sang his songs
      D               E
   Of darkness and disgrace
   
              A E          D            E
R: And he was alright, the band was altogether
              A E          D                E
   Yes he was alright, the songs went on forever
              Emi   Emi(#7)
   And he was awful nice
   Emi7                Emi6
   Really quite out of sight
               A   E     D   E
   And he sang all night long

2. The femme fatales emerged from shadows
   To watch this creature fair
   Boys stood upon their chairs to make thier point of view
   I smiled sadly for a love I could not obey
   And Lady Stardust sang his songs
   Of darkness and dismay

R: And he was alright...

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

3. Oh they were alright, the band was altogether
   Yes he was alright, and the song went on forever
   He was up all night
   Really quite out of sight
   He sang all night long
