Trucking down by the roadside, Met a man with a star hide

He said: “Boy, wouldn’t you like to look?”

But could it

CHORUS
C Am F G7
Give me love, gimme little love, gimme little love from her heart
2nd time – God’s

C Am E
Gimme love, gimme little love from her heart and then we’ll walk
2nd time – God’s

2. Bopping down by the whirlpool, I met a girl she was God’s tool
I said: “Girl, wouldn’t you like to rock?”
But could it

CHORUS

3. Walking down by the west wind, I met a boy he was my friend
I said: “Boy, we could sing it too” and we do – oo

C Am F B7
Give us love – give us little love, give us little love from your hearts
C Am E
Give us love – give us little love from your hearts
A

T.Rex – ”Ballroom Of Mars”
The Slider
1972
Written By: Marc Bolan

RIFF 1

C B/C A A?
E—–8————5–5
B—–8————5–5
G—–9—-9——-6–5 substitute the A? (dont know what chord that is)
D—10—–10—–7—6 with a standard barred D chord
A—10—–10—–7—6
E—8——7——5—5

C B/C A A?
You gonna look fine, be primed for dancing

C B/C A D
You gonna trip and glide along the trembling plane

REPEAT OVER FOR REST OF SONG I THINK

Substitute the A? with a standard barred D chord when you get to the end of the second line ie
E-5
B-7
G-7
D-7
A-5
E–

I’ve noticed the two tabs you have on this wonderful song are close…but no cigar.
off, it’s gotta be played in open chords, definitely no barre chords. So here we go…

BALLROOMS OF MARS

You gonna look fine Be primed for dancing
E————————————————————-|
B———————1—–1———–2–2—1-1–1-1–1–2-|

E—————————————————-3——–| Just
B———————–1——————1———0——–| strum the open
G———————–0——————0———0——–| G major chord
D——————-2——————0————-0——–| like Marc does
A————–3——————2——————2——–| on the song
E—————————————————-3——–|

You’re diamond hands will be stacked with roses

B———————-1————1————2—-2–1–1–1-1–1–1-|
G———————-0————0————2—-2–2–2–2-2–2–2-|
D—————-=–2——-0——————–2—-2–0–0–0-0–0–0-|
A—————-3——–2———————-0—-0——————|
E————————————————————————|

And wind and cars and people of the past
E—–0——–0——–3——3——0—————–| Marc plays dualing
B—–1——–1——–0——0——1—————–| solos (two tracks on
G—–0——–0——–0——0——0—————–| ROCK! top of each other).
D—–2——–2——–0——0——2—————–| My opinion is that you
A—–3——–3——–2——2——3—————–| improv them but that’s
E———————–3——3————————| just me.

So now you know what that mysterious A? chord is (don’t play a D chord
or that other chord A/A whatever). Rest of the song is just the same chords.
Enjoy – yours truly, the AXE MIESTER !

C/B – x20010

C C/B Am Am
You gonna look fine, be primed for dancing
C C/B G G
You’re gonna trip and glide all on the trembling plane
C C/B Am D
Your diamond hands will be stacked with roses
C G C C
And wind and cars and people of the past

Same chords for the other verses:

I’ll call you thing
Just when the moon sings
And place your face in stone
Upon the hill of stars
And gripped in the arms
Of the changeless madman
We’ll dance our lives away
In the Ballrooms of Mars

You talk about day
I’m talking ’bout night time
When the monsters call out
The names of men
Bob Dylan knows
And I bet Alan Freed did
There are things in night
That are better not to behold

You dance
With your lizard leather boots on
And pull the strings
That change the faces of men
You diamond browed hag
You’re a glitter-gaunt gangster
John Lennon knows your name
And I’ve seen his

O.K., here’s a real easy but fun T. Rex tune from the “Electric
Warrior” album. I believe the LP had the lyrics, but my copy was
lost ages ago and I’ve had to rely on my ear and the CD (minus
printed lyrics, of course) for the words. There are three spots
where I just plumb DON’T KNOW what he’s saying, and I’ve indicated
these with question marks and nonsense words. If anyone has the
correct lyrics, please let me know.

Lyrics (as I hear them):

You’re so sweet, You’re so fine
I want you all and everything jit-jit (?) to be mine
Cause you’re my babe, cause you’re my love
Oh girl I’m just a jeepster for your love

You slide so good with bones (?) so fair
You’ve got the universe reclining in your hair
Cause you’re my baby, yes you’re my love
Oh girl I’m just a jeepster for your love

Just like a car you’re pleasing to behold
I’ll car you Jaguar if I may be so bold
Yes you’re my baby, yes you’re my love
Oh girl I’m just a jeepster for your love

Your wild wings glow upon your frozen cheeks
The way you flip your head (?) it always makes me weak
Cause you’re my baby, yes you’re my love
Oh girl I’m just a jeepster for your love

Your motivation is so sweet
Your vibrations are burning out my feet
Cause you’re my baby, yes you’re my love
Oh girl I’m just a jeepster for your love
I said girl i’m just a vampire for your love
And I’m gonna suck you

Notes: Marc Bolan occasionally plays A rather than A7 in the main
riff. He also sometimes uses Dsus4 in combination with the D in
the “I’m your babe…” part.

The version on “Electric Warrior” is in standard tuning. The version
in the “Born to Boogie” film is a half step higher.

O.K., here’s a real easy but fun T. Rex tune from the “Electric
Warrior” album. Lyrics should be close to correct thanks to
help from R.J. Campbell. As with my tab of “Baby Strange,”
this one was assisted by Marc Bolan himself by way of the
movie “Born to Boogie.”
