Verse 1:

[Em] She packed my bags last night, pre-[A]flight

[Em] Zero hour, nine [A]AM

[C] And I’m gonna be [G] hiiii[Am]iiiigh [G] as a kite by [D] then

[Em] I miss the earth so much, I [A] miss my wife

[Em] It’s lonely out in [A]space

[C] On such a [G]tiiiiiii[Am]iiiime[G]less flight [D]

Chorus:

[G] And I think it’s gonna be a long long [C] time

Til touchdown brings me ’round again to [G] find

I’m not the man they think I am at [C] home

Oh no, no, [G]no, I’m a [A] rocket man

[C]Rocket man, burnin’ out his fuse up [G] here alone

[C]

[G]And I think it’s gonna be a long long [C] time

Til touchdown brings me ’round again to [G] find

I’m not the man they think I am at [C] home

Oh no, no, [G]no, I’m a [A]rocket man

[C]Rocket man, burnin’ out his fuse up [G] here alone

[C]

Verse 2:

[Em] Mars ain’t the kinda place to [A] raise your kids

[Em] In fact it’s cold as [A] hell

[C] And there’s no one [G] th[Am]ere to [G] raise them if you [D] did

[Em] And all this science, I don’t under[A]stand

[Em] It’s just my job five days a [A] week

[C] Rocket [G] m[Am]aaaaaan [G] rocket [D] man
