Intro: F#m B
F#m B
She packed my bag last night, preflight
F#m B
Zero hour, nine a.m.
D A Bm Bm/A
And I'm gonna be high
E E7
As a kite by then
F#m B
I miss the earth so much
I miss my wife
It's lonely out in space
On such a timeless flight
A D
And I think it's gonna be a long, long, time
A
'Til touchdown brings me 'round again to find
D
I'm not the man they think I am at home
Ah, no no no...
B
I'm a rocket man
D
Rocket man (2X)
Burnin' out his fuse
A
Up here alone
Mars ain't the kind of place
To raise your kids
In fact, it's cold as hell
And there's no one there to raise them
If you did
And all this science
I don't understand
It's just my job
Five days a week
A Rocket Man
Rocket Man
(Refr?o)
And I think it's gonna be a long, long, time
And I think it's gonna be a long, long, time
And I think it's gonna be a long, long, time
