I wish I was a spaceman, the fastest guy a - live,
     G                Em         Am7           D7
I'd fly around the universe in Fireball X - L - 5,
     G                 Em         Am7             D     C          D
Way out in space to - gether, conquerors of the skies!

                       G           Em
My heart would be a fireball,  a fireball,
       C                D7              G     D7
Every time I gazed in - to your starry eyes!


       G                Em          Am7        D7
We'd take the path to Jupiter, and maybe very soon,
       G               Em             Am7          D7
We'd cruise along the Milky Way, and land upon the Moon,
       G               Em          Am7            D     C          D
To a wonderland of stardust, we'd zoom our way to Mars!

                       G           Em
My heart would be a fireball,  a fireball,
        C               D7            G    
'Cause you would be my Venus of the stars!

       G                 Em       Am7            D7
But, though I'm not a spaceman, famous and re - nowned,
     G                 Em                 Am7                D7
I'm just a guy that's down to earth, with both feet on the ground,
      G           Em           Am7              D     C          D
It's all imagi - nation, I'll never reach the stars!

                       G           Em
My heart is still a fireball,  a fireball,
       C               D7              G     D7
Every time I gaze in - to your starry eyes,
   G         Em             C               D7              G    D7
Fireball,  fireball, every time I gaze in - to your starry eyes,

(Suggestion for coda)

Fireball,  fireball, every time I gaze in - to your starry eyes---!
