Rocket Man by Elton John


Em7 A9
She packed my bags last night - pre-flight
Em7 A9
Zero hour, nine A.M.
C G Am D
And I'm gonna be high as a kite by then
Em7 A9
I miss the earth so much, I miss my wife
Em7 A9
It's lonely out in space
C G Am D
On such a timeless flight as this

G C
CHORUS: And I think it's gonna be a long long time
G
Til touchdown brings me 'round to find
C
I'm not the man they think I am at home
G A9
Oh no, no, no, I'm a rocket man
C G
Rocket man, burnin' out his up here alone

Em7 A9
Mars ain't the kinda place to raise your kids
Em7 A9
In fact it's cold as hell
C G Am D
And there's no one there to raise them if you did
Em7 A9
And all this science, I don't understand
Em7 A9
It's just my job five days a-week
C G Am D
Rocket man - - - rocket man

G C
CHORUS: And I think it's gonna be a long long time
G
Til touchdown brings me 'round to find
C
I'm not the man they think I am at home
G A9
Oh no, no, no, I'm a rocket man
C G
Rocket man, burnin' out his up here alone
C G
And I think it's gonna be a long long time
C G
And I think it's gonna be a long long time
