Chords

[Verse 1]
Am7                              D     
She packed my bags last night - pre-flight

Am7              D
Zero hour, nine A.M.

F                C          Dm   G Gsus4 Gsus2 G
And I'm gonna be high as a kite by then

Am7                        D         
I miss the earth so much, I miss my wife

Am7                 G Gsus4
It's lonely out in space

F            C       Dm     G   Gsus4 Gsus2 G
On such a timeless flight as this
[Chorus]
  C                                    F
And I think it's gonna be a long long time

                                   C
Til touchdown brings me 'round to find

                                    F
I'm not the man they think I am at home

           C          D
Oh no, no,no, I'm a rocket man

  F                                  C          F
Rocket man, burnin' out his fuse up here alone         (2x)
[Verse 2]
Am                              D
Mars ain't the kinda place to raise your kids

Am                    D
In fact it's cold as hell

F                   C           Dm             G Gsus4 Gsus2 G
And there's no one there to raise them if you did

Am                               D
And all this science, I don't understand

Am                           D
It's just my job five days a week

F      C    Dm     G Gsus4 Gsus2 G
Rocket man    rocket man
[Chorus]
  C                                    F
And I think it's gonna be a long long time

                                    C
Til touchdown brings me 'round to find

                                     F
I'm not the man they think I am at home

             C           D
Oh no, no, no, I'm a rocket man

  F                              C          F
Rocket man, burnin' out his fuse up here alone        (2x)
[Outro]
  F                              C
And I think it's gonna be a long long time

  F                              C
And I think it's gonna be a long long time
