[Gm] She packed my bags [C] last night, pre-flight, [Gm]
zero hour, [C] 9 a.m.
[Eb]
And [Bb] I'm gonna be [Cm] high [Eb] as [F] a kite by then.
[Gm]
I miss the earth so much, I miss my wife, [F] [Gm]
it's lonely out in space.
[Eb]
On [Bb] such a [Cm] time, less [Bb] white.
[F]
[Bb]
And I think it's gonna be a [Eb] long, long time,
Till touchdown brings me round [Bb] again to find
Another man, they think I [Eb] am at home.
Oh no, [Bb] no, no, [C] I'm a rocket man.
[F] [Eb] Rocket man, burning out his [Bb] fuse, I was there all along.

and there's [Bb] no one there [Cm] to raise [Eb] them.
[F] If you did, [Gm]
and all the science [C] I don't [Cm] understand,
[Gm]
It's just my job to find [C] days a week.
