Chords with lyrics
Intro: E minorEm
D MajorD A9A9
On solid fuel and wires
C majorC G+G E minorEm
Turn the key and light the fires
D MajorD A9A9 (C majorC G+G) E minorEm
We’re leaving earth today
D MajorD A9A9
This rocket’s burning bright
C majorC G+G E minorEm
We’ll soon be out of sight
D MajorD A9A9 (C majorC G+G)
And orbiting in space
D MajorD A9A9
Pushed back in my seat
E minorEm
Look out my window
D MajorD C majorC
There goes home
D MajorD A9A9
That ball of shiny blue
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC
Houses everybody anybody ever knew
Refrão:
G+G D MajorD
So sing your song I’m listening
A9A9 G/BG/B C majorC D MajorD
Out where stars are glistening I can
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC (C majorC C5C5 C majorC)
hear your voices bouncing off the moon
G+G D MajorD
If you could see our nation
A9A9 G/BG/B C majorC D MajorD
From the international space station
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC
You’d know why I want to get back soon
E minorEm D MajorD A9A9
Eighteen thousand miles an hour
C majorC G+G E minorEm
Fuelled by science and solar power
D MajorD A9A9 C majorC G+G E minorEm
The oceans racing past
D MajorD A9A9
At half a thousand tons
C majorC G+G E minorEm
Ninety minutes moon to sun
D MajorD A9A9 C majorC G+G D MajorD
A augmentedA bullet can’t go half this fast
A9A9
Floating from my seat
E minorEm
Look out my window
D MajorD C majorC D MajorD
There goes home
A9A9
That brilliant ball of blue
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC
Is where I’m from, and also where I’m going to
Refrão:
G+G D MajorD
So sing your song I’m listening
A9A9 G/BG/B C majorC D MajorD
Out where stars are glistening I can
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC (C majorC C5C5 C majorC)
hear your voices bouncing off the moon
G+G D MajorD
If you could see our nation
A9A9 G/BG/B C majorC D MajorD
From the international space station
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC
You’d know why I want to get back soon
A9A9 E/A D MajorD
All black and white just fades to grey
A9A9 E/A D MajorD
Where the sun rises sixteen times a day
A9A9 E/A D MajorD
You can’t make out borders from up here
A9A9 E/A D MajorD
Just a spinning ball within a tiny atmosphere
(C majorC C5C5 C majorC)
D MajorD A9A9
Pushed back in my seat
E minorEm
Look out my window
D MajorD C majorC
Here comes home
D MajorD A9A9
What once was fuelled by fear
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC
Now has fifteen nations orbiting together here
Refrão:
G+G D MajorD
So sing your song I’m listening
A9A9 G/BG/B C majorC D MajorD
Out where stars are glistening I can
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC (C majorC C5C5 C majorC)
hear your voices bouncing off the moon
G+G D MajorD
If you could see our nation
A9A9 G/BG/B C majorC D MajorD
From the international space station
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC
You’d know why I want to get back soon
