Here's how I play it. I kind of cheat by using a capo on the 2nd fret, but you still get the general feel and sound of the song. Alex Chilton (Capo on 2nd fret) Intro: (4x) ----------- ----------- ----------- 0 2 2 0 0 0 X X 0 2 3 0 X 3 2 0 3 0 ----------- ----------- ----------- X 0 2 2 0 0 3 X 0 0 3 3 X 0 2 2 3 0 Verse: FaddG 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 ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- 3 2 0 0 3 3 2 X 0 0 3 3 X X 3 0 1 3 X 0 2 0 1 3 The A9 in verses is played the same as shown above for the intro. Chorus: Children by the millions wait for Alex Chilton When he comes round Sayin' I'm in love.... (This part is the same as intro) Bridge: (??) Never travel too far Without a little Big Star ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- X 3 5 3 4 3 X 1 3 3 3 X X 3 5 5 4 3 X X 0 2 3 2 That first chord may actually be an Eb, not a Cm7, in which case you should play it: ----------- X 6 5 3 4 3 the lead (anyone else want to give it a shot??), which is played over the chords from the intro. Hope someone finds this useful. Ben McTernan
