_ _ _ _ _ [E] _
[G] _ _ _ [D] I'm 42 [Em] years old.
I've [B] seen the [G] hot side of the [Am] sun.
I've seen [B] blue ice cold.
I've shot the [G] one-eyed giant [Am] down with laser [B] in my hand.
But I'll never see [G] my [Em] home [B] again or walk on [Em] Earth's green land. _ _ _
In [G] 1997, [D] we set out on the [Em] Jupiter II.
[Bm] Bound for [G] Alpha Centauri, [Am] my family [B] and small crew.
We ran [G] into a meteor [Am] storm, the wrong [B] time, the wrong place.
It's been six [G] months, [Em] thirty [B] years, and we've [Em] been lost in space. _
_ My _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [E]
father [G] died five years [D] ago.
There was no better [Em] man than he.
My [G] mother's never been the [C] same, but now [B] it's up to me.
Our pilot [G] is a handsome man, my [Am] sisters [B] both could tell.
[Em]
[Bm] Dr.
[G] Smith will get us [B] killed, and that may [E] be just [Em] as well. _ _ _ _
[E] I've worked the [G] mines of many [F#m] worlds, got [D] fuel to [Em] power our ship.
I've [G] got a robot for a [Em] friend and help her on [B] our trip.
[Em] I'm [G] sending out this message [Am] now from this [B] ungodly place
[G] in hopes someone will [A] rescue [B] us from being [Em] lost in space. _
_ _ _ _ My _ _ _ _ [E] name is [G] William Robinson.
[D] I'll never [Em] take a wife.
No children will I [G] father, [Am] I have no [Em] normal life.
Show me [Bm] mercy [G] in this [Am] universe, or show me [B] God's true [E] face.
Whisper [G] my name [Em] from the stars where I've been lost in space. _ _ _ _
