verse 1: 
Em7                                     A  Asus4  
  She packed my bags last nigh, pre-flight    
Em7                A  Asus4 
  Zero hour, nine A.M.  
C                G                  Am           
And I'm gonna be hi..i..i..gh, as a kite by then

Em7                           A             Asus4  
  I miss the earth so much, I miss my wife   
Em7                   A    Asus4  
  It's lonely out in space   
C         G               Am    
On such a t..i..i..meless flight     
Am/G   D   Dsus4 Dsus2 

G                                       C

                                         G       
Till touchdown brings me 'round again to find   
                                    C  
I'm not the man they think I am at home   
           G          A         Asus4  
Oh no, no, no, I'm a rocket man   
  C                                  G           C 
Rocket man, burnin' out his fuse up here alone         
 
G                                       C  
  And I think it's gonna be a long long time   
                                         G       
Till touchdown brings me 'round again to find   
                                    C  
I'm not the man they think I am at home   
           G          A          Asus4  
Oh no, no, no, I'm a rocket man

verse 2: 
Em7                              A             Asus4  
  Mars ain't the kinda place to raise your kids   
Em7                    A    Asus4  
  In fact it's cold as hell   
C                   G           Am              
And there's no one there to raise them,   
Am/G   D Dsus4 Dsus2  
if you did  

Em7                               A      Asus4  
And all this science, I don't understand   
Em7                           A   Asus4  
It's just my job five days a week   
C        G              Am
