Standard Tuning
Capo 3
I use D/Dsus2 for riff throughout the song, but it works with just a plain D.
Intro: D
D G
She grew like a flower now she’s pulling up her roots
Em A
she’s trading in those small town shoes for some astronaut boots
D G
her daddy says “we’ll miss you just don’t forget this place.
Em A
You better send us back a postcard when you hit the milky way”
G Em A
now the countdown has begun
G Em A
and it’s 5 4 3 2 1
D G
she’s gonna run into the sun, break through the atmosphere
Em
dance with the stars, hang out on mars
A
light years away from here
D
she’s finding her place up there in space
G
she won’t be back here soon
Em
no she’s not going home
A
till she leaves footprints on the moon
D
D G
she waited for this moment since she was just a little girl
Em A
she knows there’s something out there for her that’s bigger than this world
D
now she’s chasing down those comets
G
she’s gonna catch them one by one
Em A
and she’ll get to where she’s going if she can just hold on
D G
she’s gonna run into the sun, break through the atmosphere
Em
dance with the stars, hang out on mars
A
lightyears away from here
D
she’s finding her place up there in space
G
she won’t be back here soon
Em
no she’s not going home
A
til she leaves footprints on the moon
Em D
you’ve come so far, know who you are
G A
up so high but you can’t look down
Em
if you fall get up
G A
gotta keep your head up now
D* G*
she’s gonna run into the sun, break through the atmosphere
Em
dance with the stars, hang out on mars
A
light years away from here
D
she’s finding her place up there in space
G
she won’t be back here soon
Em
no she’s not going home
A
till she leaves footprints on the
D G Em A
Moon
D G
Footprints on the moon
Em A
No she’s not going home, till she leaves footprints on the moon
D
