People stared at the makeup on his face
A F#m E C#
Laughed at his long black hair, his animal grace
F#m D A C#
The boy in the bright blue jeans jumped up on the stage
A E D E
And Lady stardust sang his songs of darkness and disgrace
A E D E
And he was alright, the band was all together
A E D E
Yes he was alright, the songs went on forever
Em Em(#7) Em7 Em6
And he was awful nice really quite out of sight
A E D E
And he sang all night long
A C# F#m D
The femme fatales emerged from shadows to watch this creature fair
A F#m E C#
Boys stood upon their chairs to make thier point of view
F#m D A C#
I smiled sadly for a love I could not obey
A E D E
And Lady Stardust sang his songs of darkness and dismay
And he was alright, the band was all together
Yes he was alright, the songs went on forever
And he was awful nice, really quite paradise
And he sang all night long
D D#dim E
Ooh, how I sighed when they asked if I knew his name
Oh they were alright, the band was all together
Yes he was alright, and the song went on forever
He was up all night, really quite out of sight
He sang all night long
