Children Collide
Farewell Rocketship
Tabbed by Lachy Bruce
I got some of the names of the powerchords wrong on my last attempt at this song, so if
wrong again here's the outline:
A = 002220
E = 022100
G# = 466544
C#m = 446654
A5 = 577xxx
Em = x22xxx
G#5 = 466xxx
C#5 = x466xx
Verse 1:
A E
This world it is not safe,
G# C#m
We must make plans to leave this place
A E
We’ll build a colony
G# C#m
on nearby planets known to me,
A E
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
G# C#m
Goodbye to all the ones I’ll miss,
A E
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
G# C#m
Goodbye to war and politics,
|E|---17-16--12~--------------------------------------4-5-2~---------2-2-2-2-2-2----------|
|B|--------------------4-4-4-5-5-5-7-7-7-9-9-9-----------------------------------------2~-|
|G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Verse 2:
(Repeat pattern from verse 1)
No time to warn your friends
That they’ll stay here and meet their ends
Sneak up without a trace
And start a brand new human race
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye to all the ones I’ll miss,
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye to war and politics
Chorus:
A5 Em G#5 C#5
Farewell rocketship
A5 Em G#5 C#5
Farewell rocketship
A5 Em G#5 C#5
Farewell rocketship
A5 Em G#5 C#5
Farewell rocketship
Verse 3:
(I think you know the pattern by now)
This world it is not safe,
We must make plans to leave this place,
We’ll build a colony
On nearby planets known to me,
I tried, I tried, I tired, I tired
I tried to warn them it’s too late
I’ll try, I’ll try, I’ll try, I’ll try
I’ll try my luck in outer space
Chorus:
(Those powerchords from the last chorus)
Farewell Rocketship
Farewell Rocketship
Farewell Rocketship
Farewell Rocketship
Verse 4:
(Same verse pattern but with some nice singular clean strums)
We won’t need a doctor
We won’t need a scientist,
We won’t need an army or a TV
we’ll just need you and me
Solo (incomplete):
|E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
|B|--------------------------------------------------------------------|

Unsure of tremolo picking section but these chorus chords are played underneath it:
A5 Em G#5 C#5
Chorus:
Farewell rocketship
Farewell rocketship
Farewell rocketship
Farewell rocketship
Outro:
(Verse Chords but like you played before the solo)
We won’t need an army, or a TV
we’ll just need you and me
