[Verse 1]
F Am I’m all wires an aluminum, comet dust and nitrogen, Dm Bb I followed everyone’s command, first 18 years were fine and grand F Am No space junk upon this ship, flying high at 36, Dm Bb without flash without conceit, I’ve done all they asked of me
Bb
[Chorus 1]
C Dm Bb F But every journey that begins should have an ending C Dm Bb F Besides this daily stream of data I keep sending C Dm Bb F Beyond the stars where time and space are bending Dm C Bb I miss home
[Verse 2]
F Am Liftoff August 78, no malfunction to relate, Dm Bb 30 billion miles I’ve come, all those trips around the sun F Am For my trials with ice and fire, they came to deal(?) that I’d retire Dm Bb Arianespace wants me on view, on Independence Avenue
Bb
[Chorus 2]
C Dm Bb F But the brass they disapproved of my ambitions C Dm Bb F After all these years of silence I still listen C Dm Bb F Between fever dreams of static and transmissions Dm C Bb I miss home

[Verse 3]
F Am Wave goodbye to what you know, don’t be sad to see it go, Dm Bb I passed the moon and earth today, oh so close, so far away F Am Thrusters useless fuel used up, contact lost completely fucked, Dm Bb Unless they send someone at last, to try and catch me as I pass,
Bb
[Chorus 3]
C Dm Bb F While the final coordinates are pending C Dm Bb F For the waves and flares and fields I will keep tending C Dm Bb F every journey that begins should have an ending C Dm Bb F every journey that begins should have an ending C Dm Bb F every journey that begins should have an ending
(every journney that begins should have an ending)
C Dm Bb F every journey that begins should have an ending
(every journney that begins)
C Dm Bb F every journey
(should have an ending)
Dm C Bb I miss home
