[Rocket Man]

[Verse] (bass)
[G#]She[C#] packed my bags last night pre-flight
[G#]Zer[C#]o hour nine a.m. and I'm gonna be
E(high) D# G# B A# F#(guitar)
h-h-i-i-i-gh as a kite by then
G#(pm) C#(pm)
I miss the earth so much I miss my wife
G#(pm) C#(pm)
It's lonely out in space on such a
[E]t-[D#]t-i[C#]-i-[B]me[A#]-le[F#]ss flight.

[Chorus]
[B]An[Eii]d I think it's gonna be a long, long time
[B]Till touch down brings me round again to find
[E]I'[D#]m not the man they think I am at home Oh no no no
C# Riff A

[Eii]Rock[B]et[E] m[B]an[E] b[B]ur[Eii]ning out my fuse up here alone.
[B]An[Eii]d I think it's gonna be a long, long time
[B]Till touch down brings me round again to find

C# Riff A
I am a rocket man
[Eii]Rock[B]et[E] m[B]an[E] b[B]ur[Eii]ning out my fuse up here alone.

[Verse] (bass)
Mars ain't the kind of place to raise your kids
In fact it's cold as hell
And there's no one there to raise them if you did
And all this science I don't understand
It's just my job five days a week


A rocket m-A-A-o-o-m-A-A-n, A rocket man


[Chorus]

[Eii]Rock[B]et[E] m[B]an[E] b[B]ur[Eii]ning out my fuse up here alone.
[B]An[Eii]d I think it's gonna be a long, long time
[B]Till touch down brings me round again to find
[E]I'[D#]m not the man they think I am at home Oh no no no
