Em7                                 A
 She packed my bags last night pre-flight
Em7               A    G/B
 Zero hour, nine A.M.
Cadd9             G/B  Am   Am7/G            D/F#      D
 And I'm gonna be hi-i-igh      as a kite by then

 I miss the earth so much, I miss my wife
Em7                    Asus4      G/B
   It's lonely out in space
Cadd9      G/B   Am      Am7/G      D/F#    D   Cadd9
 On such a ti-i-imeless flight   as this


Chorus:

G                       G/B
 And I think it's gonna be a long long time
Cadd9
 Til touchdown brings me 'round again to find
G            G/B
 I'm not the man they think I am at home
Cadd9      G/B         A7
 Oh no, no, no, I'm a rocket man
Cadd9                                G         Cadd9
Rocket man, burnin' out his fuse up here alone
G                       G/B
 And I think it's gonna be a long long time
Cadd9
Til touchdown brings me 'round again to find
G            G/B
 I'm not the man they think I am at home
Cadd9      G/B         A7
 Oh no, no, no, I'm a rocket man
Cadd9                                G         Cadd9
Rocket man, burnin' out his fuse up here alone


Verse 2:

Em7                             A
 Mars ain't the kinda place to raise your kids
Em7                     A     G/B
  In fact it's cold as hell
Cadd9               G/B           Am        Am7/G       D/F#      D
 And there's no one there to-o-o raise them      if you did
Em7                            A
 And all this science, I don't understand
Em7                          Asus4
 It's just my job five days a week
  G/B    Cadd9   G/B  Am   Am7/G    D/F#   D    Cadd9
A rocket ma-a-a-a-an         rocket man
