Verse
Em7                                  A9
She packed my bags last night - pre-flight
Em7               A9
Zero hour, nine A.M.
C                G         Am      D
And I'm gonna be high as a kite by then
Em7                         A9
I miss the earth so much, I miss my wife
Em7                 A9
It's lonely out in space
C         G        Am       D
On such a timeless flight as this
Chorus
G                                     C
 And I think it's gonna be a long long time
                                  G
Til touchdown brings me 'round to find
                                   C
I'm not the man they think I am at home
           G         A9
Oh no, no, no, I'm a rocket man
C                              G
Rocket man, burnin' out his up here alone
Chorus
G                                     C
 And I think it's gonna be a long long time
                                  G
Til touchdown brings me 'round to find
                                   C
I'm not the man they think I am at home
           G         A9
Oh no, no, no, I'm a rocket man
C                              G
Rocket man, burnin' out his up here alone
Verse
Em7                           A9
Mars ain't the kinda place to raise your kids
Em7                  A9
In fact it's cold as hell
C                   G       Am                D
And there's no one there to raise them if you did
Em7                               A9
And all this science, I don't understand
Em7                         A9
It's just my job five days a-week
C        G  Am          D
Rocket man - - - rocket man
Chorus
G                                     C
 And I think it's gonna be a long long time
                                  G
Til touchdown brings me 'round to find
                                   C
I'm not the man they think I am at home
           G         A9
Oh no, no, no, I'm a rocket man
C                              G
Rocket man, burnin' out his up here alone
C                           G
And I think it's gonna be a long long time
C                           G
And I think it's gonna be a long long time
