Em A
She packed my bags last night pre-flight
Em A
Zero hour, nine a.m.
G1st C G1st-Am-G2nd D mixed with D5th
And I'm gonna be hi------gh as a kite by then
Em A
I miss the earth so much, I miss my wife
Em A
It's so lonely out in space
G1st C G1st-Am- G2nd D mixed with D5th
On such a time-------less flight
Chorus: [x2]
G C
And I think it's gonna be a long, long time
G
'Till touch down brings me round again to find
C
I'm not the man they think I am at home
G1st A
Oh no, no, no, I'm a rocket man
G1st C G
Rocket man, burning out his fuse up here alone
(+C between choruses)
Em A
Mars ain't the kind of place to raise your kids
Em A
In fact it's cold as hell
G1st C G1st-Am-G2nd D mixed with D5th
And there's no one there to raise them, if you did
Em A
And all this science I don't understand
Em A
It's just my job, five days a week
G1st C G1st-Am-G2nd D
A rocket ma---------n, a rocket man
Chorus [x2 again]
C G
And I think it's gonna be a long, long time [x4 sounds pretty good, end w/ C]
