Intro:

G                Bbsus2 Fmaj7 G
  b[-2-h3/5--2-]                b[-2-h3/5--2-]

Verse 1:

G
Once he sang to himself
   Bbsus2         Fmaj7
No microphone for no one else
   G
In days when they would leave
   Bbsus2            Fmaj7       Em
He whispered words into a tape machine
G
No the world was dark then
   Bbsus2            Fmaj7           G
No Maxwell buffed it like an emerald pin

He wore on his heart
  Bbsus2              Fmaj7          Em     G
Unleashed the wave of patriarchs and kings

Chorus:
    
    C         E          F         D
You make your own little heaven my friend
    C         E          F         D
You make your own little heaven
    C         E          F         D
You make your own little heaven my friend
C    F    D
Yeah yeah yeah

Verse 2:

G
Then a light intervened
  Bbsus2         Fmaj7     
Into his bedroom window when
   G
He was only thirteen
    Bbsus2         Fmaj7         Em
But sure glittered littering the scene
G
  He fell to his feet
    Bbsus2          Fmaj7           G
His body gripped by forces made him writhe
                            Bbsus2
To an alien beat blinded he cried against
    Fmaj7            Em
The wooden floor uttering those words repeat

Chorus:

    C         E          F         D
You make your own little heaven my friend
    C         E          F         D
You make your own little heaven
    C         E          F         D
You make your own little heaven my friend
C    F    D
Yeah yeah yeah

Middle part/Solo:

G5 F5 x3

Verse 3:

A
  Beginning to flow
    Csus2           G
Ooh Maxwell would embrace the power
   A
Of stars fell to the stage
  Csus2                  G
Renouncing his charm the tabloid
          A
Made us a pyre and too high to stack
    Csus2           G              F#m         
The make-up bulging too before the rack
A
Strange in this height of fame
   Csus2                  G
In fractured dreams the premonitions
     A
They came and caught in a flash
      Csus2              G                F#m
Whole sea of lights with chrome revolvers blast

Chorus:

    D         F#         G         E
You make your own little heaven my friend
    D         F#         G         E
You make your own little heaven
    D         F#         G         E
You make your own little heaven my friend
D    G    E
Yeah yeah yeah

Verse 4:

A
Once the mansions were few
    Csus2               G
But welcomed those like me and you
       A
And we lived here in the shade
     Csus2         G
'Til Maxwell Demon stormed the barricade
A
Heard on BBC One
     Csus2          G
They found the body by the gun
   F#m                   A
Wearing the Maxwell wig

    D         F#         G         E
You make your own little heaven my friend
    D         F#         G         E
You make your own little heaven
    D         F#         G         E
You make your own little heaven my friend
D    G    E
Yeah yeah yeah
D    G    E
Yeah yeah yeah
D    G    E     G   A(5)
Yeah yeah yeah
