[E]
Coming up on 42 -45, we're at the camp countdown.
All on 42-47, minus 47 set, now to go.
Stopwatch control.
Head up wind and disruption, we arrive at the launching site.
Sky is still dark, mirrored yon, on the Florida coastline.
Circling choppers, splash of light, glowing searchlight.
Magic day when super science mingles with the bright stuff of dream.
The earth grows in the long run, at the present time, so it's no big surprise what I want,
it's a life of the moment.
The depth in the hazy distance, the star of this unnerving show.
[Em]
Venting vapors like the breath of a sleeping [E] white dragon.
Cracking speaker, voices tense, [A] resume the final count.
[Em] All systems check, T minus 9, as the stunner drama starts now.

Little company, [A] bloodstocks to the trembling,
spreading love, I know that [E] I've got a gun,
I'm from the war, chase the air like the whole world exploding.
Scotch and blouse, go fire, [A] as we slowly leave the ground.
