[Verse 1]
Em                                               D
Didn't know what time it was, lights were low oh oh

 D
(I leaned) back on my radio oh oh

A                                                                D  G 
Some cat was layin' down some rock 'n' roll, lotta' soul, he said.

Em                                   D
Then the loud sound did seem to fade.

D                                               A         
Came back like a slow voice on a wave of phase.

A
That weren't no DJ. That was hazy cosmic jive.
F# E [Chorus]
          D       Bm
There’s a starman waiting in the sky

     F#m               E
He'd like to come and meet us,

        A
But he thinks he'd blow our minds.

           D       Bm
There's a starman, waiting in the sky.

     F#m                 E
He's told us not to blow it

             A
Cause he knows it's all worthwhile.

        G                          D
He told me let the children lose it.

              B        Em
Let the children use it.

                A         G
Let all the children boogie.

I had to phone someone, so I picked on you.

D                                        A
Hey, that's far out so you heard him too.

A                                                D     G
Switch on the TV we may pick him up on Channel Two.

Em                                       D
Look out your window I can see his light.

D                                    A
If we can sparkle he may land tonight.

A
Don't tell your poppa or he'll get us locked up in fright.
