[Intro 1]
[D][G][A][D][A][D][E]
[A][D][E][Em]

[Verse 1]
I was [Em]waiting in the
[D]express lane with [A]my twelve items or less
At [Em]the checkout counter at
[D]the local grocery [A]store
I was [C]only passing [E]by
But [A]a paper caught my [D]eye
And I [G]learned a few things
[D]I never knew before
[E]

[Verse 2]
It [Em]said your pet may
[D]be an extra ter[A]restrial
It said [Em]the ghost of Elvis
is [D]living in my [A]den
You can [C]learn to cope with [E]stress
You can [A]beat [D]the IRS
And the in[G]credible frog boy
is [D]on the loose again
[E]

[Verse 3]
[A]Oh, [D]Midnight Sta[E]r
[A]It's in [D]the weekly Midnight [E]Star
[A]Aliens from outer space are
[D]sleeping [A]in my [B]car
Mid[Bm]night Star, I want [E]to know,
I want to know
[G]

[Verse 4]
[Em]
Eat jelly [D]donuts and lose
[A]twenty pounds a day
Hear [Em]the story of the man
[D]born without a hea[A]d
And top [C]psychics all [E]agree
That [A]the telephone company
[D]Will have a b[G]rand new service
that [D]lets you talk to the dead
[E]

[Verse 5]
[A]Oh, [D]Midnight Sta[E]r
You can believe it if you read [A]it
in [D]the weekly Midnight [E]Star
