+ Info...
Initially a psychedelic folk-rock combo called Tyrannosaurus Rex, T.Rex was a primary force in glam rock, thanks to the creative direction of guitarist/vocalist Marc Bolan (born Mark Feld). Bolan created a deliberately trashy form of rock and roll that was proud of its own disposability, which stood in contrast to the low-key whimsical poetry of the earlier duo. T.Rex's music borrowed the underlying sexuality of early rock & roll, adding dirty, simple grooves and fat distorted guitars, as well as an overarching folky/hippie spirituality that always came through the clearest on ballads.

Ballrooms Of Mars Tab by T Rex
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-|
G---------------------0-----0-----------2--2---1-1--1-1--1--2-|
D--------------------2---0--------------2--2---1-1--1-1--1--2-|
A----------------3------2---------------0--0---0-0--0-0--0--0-|
E-------------------------------------------------------------|
You're gonna trip and glide all over the trembling plane
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
E--------------------------------------------------------2--2--2-2--2--2-|
B----------------------1------------1------------2----2--1--1--1-1--1--1-|
G----------------------0------------0------------2----2--2--2--2-2--2--2-|

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 !
