[Intro] G Em D C G [Verse]
                                        Em
Sunday morning with the New York Times

                                          D
The sun is shining in my penthouse suite

                                   C
My lady love laid down some lines

                                             G
They reach from Culver Beach to Easy Street
[Verse]
                                        Em
Before the mirror you apply your cream

                                   D
Cosmetic secrets of eternal youth

                                                     C
There's something the matter, it's just a bad dream

                                      Em       G
I know you'd leave me if you knew the truth
[Chorus]
                            Em
I might as well be on Mars

Em
I might as well be on Mars

D                               C      G
Only the stars mean anything to you

                            Em
I might as well be on Mars

Em
I might as well be on Mars

D                              C     Am
I'm already that far away from you
[Bridge]
                       Em        Am
We lead such a sweet existence

                               Em     Am
But I'm reaching out to you in vain

                           Em
You're disappearing in the distance

        D        C       G
Of this alien terrain
[Chorus]
                            Em
I might as well be on Mars

Em
I might as well be on Mars

D                               C      G
Only the stars mean anything to you

                            Em
I might as well be on Mars

Em
I might as well be on Mars

D                              C
I'm already that far away from you
[Instrumental] Am Em Am Em D C G [Verse]
                                   Em
Monday night, another day goes by

                                                D
Your voice keeps telling me that life is sweet

                                      C
I watch your star flash into the sky

                                  Em      G
Crash down to earth again on Easy Street
[Chorus]
                            Em
I might as well be on Mars

Em
I might as well be on Mars

D                               C      G
Only the stars mean anything to you

                            Em
I might as well be on Mars

Em
I might as well be on Mars

D                              C     G
I'm already that far away from you

I might as well be on Mars

Em
I might as well be on Mars

D                               C      G
Only the stars mean anything to you

I might as well be on Mars

Em
I might as well be on Mars

D                              C     G
I'm already that far away from you
