G#                            C# 
She packed my bags last night pre-flight 

G#               C# 
Zero hour nine a.m. and I'm gonna be 

E       B/D#   C#   B       F# 
h-h-i-i-i-gh as a kite by then 

G#                         C# 
I miss the earth so much I miss my wife 

G#                 C# 
It's lonely out in space on such a 

E B/D# C#  B      F# 
t-t-i-i-me-less flight

B                                      E 
And I think it's gonna be a long, long time 

                                         B 
Till touch down brings me round again to find 

                                   E             B/D# 
I'm not the man they think I am at home Oh no no no 

       C#
I am a rocket man 

E                               B       E B E B E 
Rocket man burning out my fuse up here alone

B                                      E 
And I think it's gonna be a long, long time 

                                         B

G#                              C#
Mars ain't the kind of place to raise your kids 

G#                    C#
In fact, it's cold as hell 

     E             B/D#    C#        B           F#
And there's no one there to raise them if you did 

G#                               C#
And all this science I don't understand 

G#                           C#
It's just my job five days a week 

         E  B/D#  C#   B           F#
A rocket m-A-A-o-o-m-A-A-n, A rocket man 

B                                      E
