Capo 2 fret

[Verse]
Emadd2                           Am7*
  She packed my bags last night, pre-flight. (Yeah, she did...)
/A /B Emadd2              Am7*
        Zero hour, nine a.m.
/A  /B C               Am7/B   Am7*
      And I'm gonna be high.......as a kite by then
 
/C(slide)Dsus4add2  /D(slide)C  Am7/B  C  Dsus4add2
 
Emadd2                          Am7*
   I miss the earth so much, I miss my wife
/A /B Emadd2                     Am7*
          It's so lonely out in space
/A  /B C             Am7/B   Am7*
        /C(slide)Dsus4add2
         On such a time.........less flight.
 
 
[Chorus]
G                                        C**
And I think it's gonna be a long, long time
                                          G
'Till touch down brings me round again to find
                                   C*
I'm not the man they think I am at home
      G/B            A
Oh no, no, no, I'm a rocket man
C                                      G        C
    C
Rocket man, burning out his fuse up here alone
 
Emadd2                           Am7*
Mars ain't the kind of place to raise your kids
/A /B Emadd2                   Am7*
          In fact it's cold as hell
/A  /B C                   Am7/B   Am7*
        And there's no one there to raise them, if you did
 
 
/C(slide)Dsus4add2  /D(slide)C  Am7/B  C  Dsus4add2
 
[Verse]
    Emadd2                   Am7*
And all this science I don't understand
Emadd2                             Am7*
     It's just my job, five days a week
         C   Am7/B   Am7*
A rocket man................I’m a rocket man
 
/C(slide)Dsus4add2  /D(slide)C  Am7/B  C  Dsus4add2
 
[Chorus]
 
[Post chorus:]
C**                            G
  And I think it's gonna be a long, long time [x4]
 
 
[Ending:]
C*   G/B                  Eadd2
        For the Rocket Man
