Kevin Saw A Ufo

• Verse

Verse
A
He wasn’t happily married to Marjorie
Dmaj7
But they were stuck together half heartedly
A
Like two pieces of bread and some margerine
Dmaj7
Desperately longing for something to come between

Bm7      C#m7
Them one day,
      Bm7                 C#m7
Kevin thought he saw the extraterrestrial
Bm7
In the sky from miles away
          D/E
Comin’ to change his life

Chorus
Dmaj7   E           F#m
Ohhhhh, Kevin saw a UFO
F#m7                Dmaj7
Circling the ground below
E           G/A
Kevin saw a UFO

          Dmaj7
Don’t you know
     E         F7    F#7
It’s aliens of course-a
Em7sus4            Dmaj7
Super speed flying saucer
                   Esus4 E
See how the lights glow

Verse
A
Maybe yesterday or the day before
Dmaj7
Kevin went out in the park with the labrador
A
And then out of the sky came along a ship
Dmaj7
That had Kevin’s name written all over it

Bm7         C#m7
He had thought
        Bm7          C#m7
That he saw the extraterrestrial
Bm7
Oh yeah
Bm7
What would Marjorie say when he told her
D/E
Would she care

Chorus
Dmaj7   E           F#m
Ohhhhh, Kevin saw a UFO
F#m7                Dmaj7
Circling the ground below
E           G/A
Kevin saw a UFO

          Dmaj7
Don’t you know
     E         F7    F#7
It’s aliens of course-a
Em7sus4            Dmaj7
Super speed flying saucer
                   Esus4 E
See how the lights glow

Bridge
Dmaj7
And then Marjorie wouldn’t believe him
Dmaj7
When he ran in the kitchen screaming
A
He said what part of aliens’ landing
Amaj7
Are you not understanding

Verse

B7
Then there was a knock at the front door
B7                              Esus4   E
Like nothing they’ve ever heard before

Bm7      C#m7
And that day
          Bm7                 C#m7
Marjorie thought she saw the extraterrestrial
Bm7
On a drive from miles away
          D/E
Coming to change their lives

Chorus
Dmaj7   E           F#m
Ohhhhh, Kevin saw a UFO
F#m7                Dmaj7
Circling the ground below
E           G/A
Kevin saw a UFO

          Dmaj7
Don’t you know
     E         F7    F#7
It’s aliens of course-a
Em7sus4            Dmaj7
Super speed flying saucer
                   Esus4 E
See how the lights glow
