Intro 3x: AEDEAEDA Friday night affair
EA
Out in the city heat
ED
Always a party there
EF
Along the sordid street
CG
And it was guaranteed
DAEDE
The place to be was Rocketown
--------------------------
AED
The drinks were two for one
EA
Inside the crowded bars
ED
The girls would make their run
EF
Down on the boulevard
CG
It was the idol place
DAEAG
We lived the ways of Rocketown
FC/EDm
Hang around by the street light
EAEDEAEDE
In the heart of the night life
--------------------------
AED
There came a certain man
EAA stranger to the crowd
ED
We didn't understand
EF
What he was all about
CG
He walked a different pace
DAEDE
So out of place in Rocketown
--------------------------
AED
They made a fool of him
EA
They teased him when he's speak
ED
But when they knocked him down
EF
He turned the other cheek
CG
He told me I could find
DAEAGA life outside of Rocketown
FC/EDm
Hang around by the street light
E
In the heart of the night life
--------------------------
F
What was his mission
EE/G#Am
Where was he going
FGG#
Why was his heart light always glowing?
F
All I was missing
EE/G#Am
He stood there holding
F
What was his secret
G G#º AEDEAEDE
Could I know it?
--------------------------
AED
Some didn't like him near
EA
Some laughed and turned away
ED
But me, I longed to hear
EF
All that he had to say
CG
He had a peace of mind
DAEAG
I couldn't find in Rocketown
FC/EDm
And when I reached down inside me
E
I could feel the emptiness
--------------------------
AED
He said it's in the heart
EA
This change that comes to be
ED
Now he had done his part
EF
The rest was up to me
CG
As we were standing there
DAEAG
He said a prayer for Rocketown
CG
As we were standing there
DAEAG
He said a prayer for Rocketown
--------------------------
CG
He walked off silently
D
And prayed for me
AEDEAEDE
And Rocketown...
