Rocket Man by Elton John

ROCKET MAN by Elton John

VERSE
She packed my bags last night pre-flight
Zero hour nine AM
And I’m gonna be high as a kite by then

INTERLUDE 2 BARS

I miss the earth so much I miss my wife
It’s lonely out in space
On such a timeless flight

INTERLUDE 2 BARS

CHORUS
And I think it’s gonna be a long long time
‘Till touch down brings me round again to find
I’m not the man they think I am at home
Oh no no no I’m a rocket man
Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone

INTERLUDE 2 BARS

And I think it’s gonna be a long long time
‘Till touch down brings me round again to find
I’m not the man they think I am at home
Oh no no no I’m a rocket man
Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone

INTERLUDE 2 BARS

VERSE
Mars ain’t the kind of place to raise your kids
In fact it’s cold as hell
And there’s no one there to raise them if you did

INTERLUDE 2 BARS

And all this science I don’t understand
It’s just my job five days a week
A rocket man, a rocket man

INTERLUDE 2 BARS

CHORUS
And I think it’s gonna be a long long time
‘Till touch down brings me round again to find
I’m not the man they think I am at home
Oh no no no I’m a rocket man
Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone

INTERLUDE 2 BARS

And I think it’s gonna be a long long time
‘Till touch down brings me round again to find
I’m not the man they think I am at home
Oh no no no I’m a rocket man
Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone
And I think it’s gonna be a long long time
And I think it’s gonna be a long long time
And I think it’s gonna be a long long time
And I think it’s gonna be a long long time
