Intro: Am E|Dm7 E|E|

V1:
      Am E          Dm9  E         Dm
       Am
Sugar Man won't you hurry, cos I'm tired of these scenes
      (Am)     E          Dm9       E
     E     Am
For a blue coin won't you bring back all those colours to my dreams

C       Am    D7        F       C
          F    Bb      E
Silver magick ships you carry - jumpers, coke, sweet 'mary jane'

V2:
      Am E       Dm9         E     Dm
     Am
Sugar Man, met a false friend on a lonely dusty road
        (Am) E        Dm9     E       Dm
   E           Am
Lost my heart, when I found it it had turned to dead black coal
C       Am    D7        F       C
          F    Bb      E
Silver magick ships you carry - jumpers, coke, sweet 'mary jane'

v3:
      Am E           Dm9   E             Dm
      E      Am
Sugar Man you're the answer that makes my questions disappear
     (Am) E        Dm9  E         Dm     E     Am  E  Dm7  E
Sugar Man, cos I'm weary of those double games I hear
      Am  E      Dm9 E      Am  E
   Dm9 E      Am  E      Dm9 E
Sugar Man, Sugar Man, Sugar Man, Sugar Man, Sugar Man, Sugar Man, Sugar
Am  E  Dm7 E
Man... into instrumental... Am E|Dm E|Am
E|E|E Am|Am|Am|

Then repeat all three verses, gradually fading out with increasing reverb, and end on
my questions diappear."

Notes:
Sounds great with a bit of palm-muting on an acoustic. Generally you could get away with
Dm7 for Dm9 - it's easier and sounds almost the same when you're singing over the top.
that matter you could simply use Dm for both Dm7 and Dm9 if you wish - still sounds 
Personally I'm dubious about that first F chord in "Silver Magick ships...", I feel it
probably be a G.
Enjoy!!
