D                               G
I just found out yesterday that Linda goes to Mars

A                                             D
Every time I sit and look at pictures of used cars

D                            G
She'll turn on her radio and sit down in her chair

A                                             D
And look at me across the room as if I wasn't there
[Chorus]
D  G  D         G
Oh My stars, My Linda's gone to Mars

       A                                D
Well I wish she wouldn't leave me here alone

D  G  D         G
Oh My stars! My Linda's gone to Mars

        A                                  D
Well, I wonder if she'd bring me something home.
[Verse 2]
D                                     G
Something, somewhere, somehow took my Linda by the hand

    A                                   D
And secretly decoded our sacred wedding band

    D                                   G
For when the moon shines down up on our happy, humble home

    A                                               D
Her inner space gets tortured by some outer space unknown.
[Chorus]
D  G  D         G
Oh My stars, My Linda's gone to Mars

       A                                D
Well I wish she wouldn't leave me here alone

D  G  D         G
Oh My stars! My Linda's gone to Mars

        A                                  D
Well, I wonder if she'd bring me something home.
[Break] D G A D D G A D [Verse 3]
    D                                 G
Now I ain't seen no saucers 'cept the ones upon the shelf

    A                                   D
And if I ever seen one I'd keep it to myself

    D                                     G
For if there's life out there somewhere beyond this life on earth

     A                                                  D
Then Linda must have gone out there and got her money's worth.
[Chorus]
D  G  D         G
Oh My stars, My Linda's gone to Mars

       A                                D
Well I wish she wouldn't leave me here alone

D  G  D         G
Oh My stars! My Linda's gone to Mars

        A                                  D
Well, I wonder if she'd bring me something home.

        A                                  D
Well, I wonder if she'd bring me something home.
