My Morning Jacket - Rocket Man

Verse:
Gm                           C
She packed my bags last night pre-flight
Gm               C       C Dm 
Zero hour nine a.m.
D#               A#  Cm  A#            F     
And I?m gonna be high...    as a kite by then
Gm                         C
I miss the earth so much I miss my wife
Gm                 C       C Dm
It?s lonely out in space
D#          A#    Cm           A#    F  
On such a ti..    -meless flight

Chorus:
A#                                   
And I think it?s gonna be a long long time
D#
Till touch down brings me round again to find
A#
I?m not the man they think I am at home
D#        A#      C            C Dm
Oh no no no I?m a rocket man
D#                                 A#            D#
Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone
A#                                   
And I think it?s gonna be a long long time
D#
Till touch down brings me round again to find
A#
I?m not the man they think I am at home
D#        A#       C            C Dm
Oh no no no I?m a rocket man
D#                                 A#             D#
Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone

Verse 2:
Gm                              C
Mars ain?t the kind of place to raise your kids
Gm                   C         C Dm
In fact it?s cold as hell
D#                 A#      Cm          A#      F 
And there?s no one there to raise them if you did
Gm                             C
And all this science I don?t understand
Gm                           C
It?s just my job five days a week
   C  Dm   D#  A# Cm A#         F
A rocket   man..        rocket man

Chorus:
A#                                   
And I think it?s gonna be a long long time
D#
Till touch down brings me round again to find
A#
I?m not the man they think I am at home
D#        A#       C            C D
Oh no no no I?m a rocket man
D#                                 A#           D#
Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone
A#                                   
And I think it?s gonna be a long long time
D#
Till touch down brings me round again to find
A#
I?m not the man they think I am at home
D#        A#       C            C D
Oh no no no I?m a rocket man
D#                                 A#          D#
Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone

Outro:
A#                               D#
And I think it?s gonna be a long long time
A#                               D#
And I think it?s gonna be a long long time
A#                               D#
And I think it?s gonna be a long long time
A#                               D#          A#
And I think it?s gonna be a long long time
