[Intro]
N.C.
[Verse 1]
N.C.
She packed my bags last night, pre-flight
Zero hour: 9:00 a.m
Bb Eb F
And I’m gonna be high as a kite by then
Gm7 C
I miss the Earth so much, I miss my wife
Gm7 C
It’s lonely out in space
Eb Bb Cm F
On such a timeless flight
[Chorus]
Bb Eb
And I think it’s gonna be a long, long time
Bb
‘Til touchdown brings me ‘round again to find
Eb
I’m not the man they think I am at home
Bb C
Oh, no, no, no! I’m a rocket man
Eb Bb Eb
Rocket man! Burning out his fuse here alone
[Verse 2]
Gm7 C
Mars ain’t the kind of place to raise your kids
Gm7 C
In fact, it’s cold as hell
Eb Bb Cm F
And there’s no one there to raise them if you did
Gm7 C
And all this science I don’t understand
Gm7 C
It’s just my job five days a week
Eb Bb Cm F
Rocket maaan! Rocket man!
[Chorus]
Bb Eb
And I think it’s gonna be a long, long time
Bb
‘Til touchdown brings me ‘round again to find
Eb
I’m not the man they think I am at home
Bb C
Oh, no, no, no! I’m a rocket man
Eb Bb
Rocket man! Burning out his fuse here alone
Bb Eb
And I think it’s gonna be a long, long time
Bb
‘Til touchdown brings me ‘round again to find
Eb
I’m not the man they think I am at home
Bb C
Oh, no, no, no! I’m a rocket man
Eb Bb
Rocket man! Burning out his fuse here alone
Eb Bb
And I think it’s gonna be a long, long time
Eb
(And I think it’s gonna be a long, long time)
Bb
And I think it’s gonna be a long, long time
Eb
(And I think it’s gonna be a long, long time)
Bb
And I think it’s gonna be a long, long time
Eb
(And I think it’s gonna be a long, long time)
Bb
And I think it’s gonna be a long, long time
Eb
(And I think it’s gonna be a long, long time)
Bb
And I think it’s gonna be a long, long time
Eb
(And I think it’s gonna be a long, long time)
Bb
And I think it’s gonna be a long, long time
Eb
(And I think it’s gonna be a long, long time)
