Oh, for sure it won?t be easy and we?ll have to risk our

lives
B5                            G5
Some will try to break us and cut us down to size
    D5
But just remember,
                C5                  D5               D5
There can be no consulation prize, not in our eyes
       C5    G5      D5
It?s a long way to go
         C5     G5        D5
We can?t wait  one more day
        C5    G5      C5     G5      D5
We need some one to light up the way
       C5   G5      D5
We may run out of time

         D5                                        C5
Although time is getting short there?s still some sand left

in the glass
    B5                              G5
And now we have a living, breathing rocket man at last
     D5
It?s time to take a step
             C5                    D5 D5
And nail our colours to the mast
        D5                                  C5
No more talk of great adventures when it?s movement that we need
   B5                             G5
It must be our intentions that we never lose the lead
   D5
So count us down to zero
    C5                                           D5
And let?s get up to speed, we?re D up and away

       D5                               C5
And so now they cry for justice, as if justice will be done
        B5                           G5
But the eye up in the sky was flying to close to the sun
    D5                             C5
The Challenger has fallen and the race has now been run. . .
