CAPO: 4


Intro: Em  D  C  G  Em  D  C

verse 1
     Em           D     C G
They say it ain't complicated
    Em       D    G
Any fool can understand
  Em      D       C   G
Until the fuse is lit and
   Em       D       G     C
It blows up in your hand

verse 2
   Em        D       C G
It all looks good on paper
        Em        D          G
Step by step, you follow the plan
       Em             D         C G
In the sky, watch the desperate vapour
        Em       D       G     C
'Til It blows up in your hand


    C       D      G       Em
And love is rocket science
     C            D         G     Am
What comes up, it must come down
                         C
In burning pieces on the ground
   D        Em    G
We watch it fall
                     Am      G     Em   G  Em D C
Maybe love is rocket science after all


verse 3
    Em     D         C         G
Not if but when, you crash and burn
Em     D       G
Somehow you survive
           Em          D      C  G
But you've touched the hem of heaven
      Em       D     G
For a time you felt alive


    C       D      G       Em
And love is rocket science
     C            D         G     Am
What comes up, it must come down
                         C
In burning pieces on the ground
   D        Em    G
We watch it fall
                     Am      G     Em   G  Em D C
Maybe love is rocket science after all

Bridge
       G                  C
From a distance in the twilight
        D
Love is such a beautiful thing
         Em               C
Dry your eyes beneath the night sky
                        Em
And I'll hold you, I'll hold you
                       C
I'll hold you like our dream


C       D      G       Em
Love is rocket science
     C            D         G     Am
What comes up, it must come down
                        C
In tragic pieces on the ground
     D        Em    G
It's worth it all
                     Am       D   Em   G  Em D C
Maybe love is rocket science
