#There is a rather strange story behind this song for me - when I was living
#   in Glasgow, I used to go busking on Sachiehall Street most Friday and
# Saturday nights - One evening, this girl came up to me, and asked for this
#   song - I had heard of it, but did not know how to play it - she was so
# insistent to hear it, I asked her why - She claimed SHE was the Girl From
#                            Mars - BUT WAS SHE?

A                  E                           D
Do you remeber the time you were the girl from mars?
        Bm
I don't know if you knew that
A                       E                      D
Oh we sat there playing cards, Henry winterman cigars
        Bm                D
But she never told me her name
        E                      A
I still love you the girl from mars


             E      D           Bm
Sitting in a dreamy daze by the waters edge
D          E       A
On a crisp summers night
            E            D           Bm
Fireflies & stars in the sky jumping through the light
D         E    A
From your cigerette
           E       D      Bm
The leaves blowing softly on my face
  D           E         A
Reminds me of something else
               E     D          Bm
Something that in my memory has been misplaced
D        E         Bm
Suddenly all comes back
D        E           A
And as I look to the stars


A                  E                           D
Do you remeber the time you were the girl from mars?
        Bm
I don't know if you knew that
A                       E                      D
Oh we sat there playing cards, Henry winterman cigars
        Bm                D
But she never told me her name
        E                      A
I still love you the girl from mars


A                     E        D    Bm
Searching through the darkness of a moonless night
    D       E      A
Electricity in the air
             E           D            Bm
Twisting all through the night on the terrace
D        E        A
Now that summer's here
A           E       D         Bm
I know that you are almost in love with me
      D      E       A
I can see it in your eyes
             E          D        Bm
Dreams light shimmering over the sea tonight
       D      E        Bm
And it almost blows my mind
D        E           A
And as I look to the stars


A                  E                           D
Do you remeber the time you were the girl from mars?
        Bm
I don't know if you knew that
A                       E                      D
Oh we sat there playing cards, Henry winterman cigars
        Bm                D
But she never told me her name
        E                      A
I still love you the girl from mars


A     E             D            Bm
Today asleep in the chair by the window
   D          E       A
It felt as if you had returned
               E        D        Bm
I thought that you were standing over me
       D              E      Bm
When I woke there was no-one there
        D            E         A
I still love you the girl from mars

A                  E                           Bm
Do you remeber the time you were the girl from mars?
        D
I don't know if you knew that
A                       E                      Bm
Oh we sat there playing cards, Henry winterman cigars
    D                 Bm
And I still dream of you 
        E                      A
I still love you the girl from mars
