¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!
rich-uk's version is already great. I just play this version because 1) I hate the B chord and have to practice it yet (I'm a beginner :-) 2) Playing the G and A chords as barre saves you switching the shapes too often, especially in the prechorus
Intro: DBmDG GBmF#mA
Verse 1: DDDDA It started with a low light, next thing I knew they ripped me from my bed. BmAAD And then they took my blood type, they left a strange impression in my head. DDDA You know that I was hopin', that I could leave this starcrossed world behind. BmAA But when they cut me open, I guess I changed my mind.
Prechorus 1: GABmF#m And you know I might have just flown too far GABmF#m from the floor this time, 'cos they're calling me by my name. GAF#mBm And they’re zipping white light beams, disregarding bombs and satellites. AAAA That was the turning point, that was one lonely night.
Chorus 1: DBmDG The starmaker says it ain't so bad, the dream-maker's gonna make you mad. GBmF#mA The spaceman says, "Everybody look down, it's all in your mind."
Verse 2: DDDDA Well now I'm back at home and, I'm looking forward to this life I live. BmAAD You know it's gonna haunt me, so hesitation to this life I give. DDDA You think you might cross over, you're caught between the devil & the deep blue sea. BmAA You better look it over, before you make that leap.
Prechorus 2: GABmF#m And you know I'm fine, but I hear those voices GABmF#m at night sometimes, that justify my claim. GAF#mBm And the public don't dwell on my transmission, 'cos it wasn't televised. AAAA But it was the turning point, oh, what a lonely night!
Chorus 2: DBmDG The starmaker says it ain't so bad, the dream-maker's gonna make you mad. GBmF#mA The spaceman says, "Everybody look down, it's all in your mind."

Chorus 3: DBmDG The starmaker says it ain't so bad, the dream-maker's gonna make you mad. GBmF#mA The spaceman says, "Everybody look down, it's all in your mind."
