F F D Gm F F D Gm
[Verse 1]
F C D Gm
They married young, she became a widow
F C Eb D
And for all of her bingo friends, ditto
Gm D Bb C7 E7
She succumbed to ordinary jive, and was miserable
F C D Gm
Tired of waiting for her ship and captain
F C Eb D
Too afraid that the prior would happen
Gm D Bb C7 E7
Fell in love with an ordinary guy, who was dressed in drag
[Chorus]
F C D Gm
Your love's better than aliens tonight
F C D Gm
Your love's better than aliens tonight
F A Dm Gm F Eb D
Your love's better than anything that I like a lot
[Post-Chorus]
Gm D Bb G C
How can you bury your head so deep in the bed?
C
(And pillowcase?)
E
Girl, there's no oxygen
[Verse 2]
F C D Gm
Shortly after, the waves came crashing in
F C Eb D
She moved on to find bigger fish to swim with
Gm Eb Em Edim C7
In the lonely, lonely November night
C7 E7
She was abducted on sight, based on her principles
[Chorus]
F C D Gm
Your love's better than aliens tonight
F C D Gm
Your love's better than aliens tonight
F A7 Dm Gm F
Your love's better than everything that I like
