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.

(Capo on 2nd fret)
Вступление:

Verse:
G G/F# FaddG Am7
If he was from Venus would he feed us with a spoon
G G/F# A9
If he was from Mars then that be cool
G G/F# FaddG Am7
Standin' right on campus would he stamp us in a file
G G/F# A9
Hangin' down in Memphis all the while

----------- ----------- ----------- -----------

The A9 in verses is played the same as shown above for the intro.
Припев:
Em D9 C9
Children by the millions wait for Alex Chilton
D9
When he comes round
Sayin' I'm in love.... (This part is the same as intro)
Bridge:
Cm7 (Eb??) Bb
Never travel too far
Cm D
Without a little Big Star
Cm7 Bb Cm D
E A D G B E E A D G B E E A D G B E E A D G B E
----------- ----------- ----------- -----------
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:
Eb
E A D G B E
-----------
X 6 5 3 4 3
But that essentially covers all parts of the song. I haven't tabbed out
the lead (anyone else want to give it a shot??), which is played over the
chords from the intro. Hope someone finds this useful.
