My Morning Jacket - Rocket Man
Capo on 3rd fret my friends :)
When you see the two A chords followed by a C, play this, it sounds right according to the recording,
to me at least.

[Verse]
Em A
She packed my bags last night pre-flight
Em A A C
Zero hour nine a.m.
C G Am D
And I’m gonna be high... as a kite by then
Em A
I miss the earth so much I miss my wife
Em A A C
It’s lonely out in space
C G Am D
On such a ti.. -meless flight
[Chorus]
G
And I think it’s gonna be a long long time
C
Till touch down brings me round again to find
G
I’m not the man they think I am at home
C G A A C
Oh no no no I’m a rocket man
C G C
Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone
G
And I think it’s gonna be a long long time
C
Till touch down brings me round again to find
G
I’m not the man they think I am at home
C G A A C
Oh no no no I’m a rocket man
C G C
Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone
[Verse 2]
Em A
Mars ain’t the kind of place to raise your kids
Em A A C
In fact it’s cold as hell
C G Am D
And there’s no one there to raise them if you did
Em A
And all this science I don’t understand
Em A
It’s just my job five days a week
C G Am D
A rocket man.. rocket man
[Chorus]
G
And I think it’s gonna be a long long time
C
Till touch down brings me round again to find
G
I’m not the man they think I am at home
C G A A C
Oh no no no I’m a rocket man
C G C
Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone
G
And I think it’s gonna be a long long time
C
Till touch down brings me round again to find
G
I’m not the man they think I am at home
C G A A C
Oh no no no I’m a rocket man
C G C
Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone
[Outro]
G C
And I think it’s gonna be a long long time
G C
And I think it’s gonna be a long long time
G C
And I think it’s gonna be a long long time
G C G
And I think it’s gonna be a long long time
