[Gm] She packed my bags [C] last night, free flight, [Gm]
zero hour, [C] 9am
And [Eb]
[Bb] I'm gonna be [Cm] high as a [F] kite by then
I [Gm]
miss the earth so much, I miss my wife, [F] [Gm]
this lonely out in space
[Eb]
On [Bb] such a [Cm] timeless [Bb] flight
[F]
[Bb]
And I think it's gonna be a long, [Eb] long time
Touchdown brings me round [Bb] again to find
I'm not the man they think I [Eb] am at home
Oh no, [Bb] no, no, [C] I'm a rockin' man
Rockin' [Eb] man, burn that [Bb] excuse I was there with arms
[Eb] [Bb]
And I think it's gonna be a long, [Eb] long time

Mars ain't the kind of [C] place to raise your kids
[Gm]
In fact, it's [C] cold as hell
And [Bb] [Eb]
there's [Bb] no one there [Cm] to raise [Eb] them
[F] If you did, [Gm]
then all the science [C] I don't understand
[Gm] Is just my job five [C] days a week
[Cm] A [Eb] rockin' man, [Dm] [Cm] [F] rockin' man
[Bb]
And I think it's gonna be a [Eb] long, long time
Touchdown brings me round [Bb] again to find
I'm not the man they think [Eb] I am at home
Oh [Bb] no, no, no, [C]
