Tom: F#m
F#m Bm
She packed my bags last night pre-flight
F#m Bm
Zero hour nine a.m.
D A Bm E
And I'm gonna be high as a kite by then
F#m Bm
I miss the earth so much I miss my wife
F#m Bm
It's lonely out in space
D A Bm E
On such a timeless flight
[Chorus]
A D
And I think it's gonna be a long long time
D A
Till touch down brings me round again to find
A D
I'm not the man they think I am at home
D A B7
Oh no no no I'm a rocket man
D A
Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone
[Verse 2]
F#m Bm
Mars ain't the kind of place to raise your kids
F#m Bm
In fact, it's cold as ice
D A Bm E
And there's no one there to raise them if you did
F#m Bm
And all this science I don't understand
F#m Bm
It's just my job five days a week
D A Bm E
A rocket man, rocket man
[Chorus]
A D
And I think it's gonna be a long long time
D A
Till touch down brings me round again to find
A D
I'm not the man they think I am at home
D A B7
Oh no no no I'm a rocket man
D A D
Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone
[Chorus]
A D
And I think it's gonna be a long long time
D A
Till touch down brings me round again to find
A D
I'm not the man they think I am at home
D A B7
Oh no no no I'm a rocket man
D A D
Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone

Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone
