[Verse 1]
Em                                               D
Didn't know what time it was, lights were low oh oh
 D
(I leaned) back on my radio oh oh
A                                                                D  G
Some cat was layin' down some rock 'n' roll, lotta' soul, he said.
Em                                   D
Then the loud sound did seem to fade.
D                                               A
Came back like a slow voice on a wave of phase.
A
That weren't no DJ. That was hazy cosmic jive.
 
F#  E
 
[Chorus]
          D       Bm
There’s a starman waiting in the sky
     F#m               E
He'd like to come and meet us,
        A
But he thinks he'd blow our minds.
           D       Bm
There's a starman, waiting in the sky.
     F#m                 E
He's told us not to blow it
             A
Cause he knows it's all worthwhile.
        G                          D
He told me let the children lose it.
              B        Em
Let the children use it.
                A         G
Let all the children boogie.

[Verse 2]
Em                                         D
I had to phone someone, so I picked on you.
D                                        A
Hey, that's far out so you heard him too.
A                                                D     G
Switch on the TV we may pick him up on Channel Two.
Em                                       D
Look out your window I can see his light.
D                                    A
If we can sparkle he may land tonight.
A
Don't tell your poppa or he'll get us locked up in fright.
 
F#  E
