Andrew Peterson - Rocket Chords

[Intro]
E
 
 
[Verse 1]
C#m                 B         E
Oh the sight of the mighty machine
     A               B       E
The iron shine of a golden dream
E                  B  E
On the edge of the ocean
 
A potential explosion
A                    B       E B
Stands so tall and so serene
     E    A B
So serene
 
         C#m                    B       E
I've got two little boys and a girl in bows
          A                    B        E
We were first in line just to see the show
E                 B   E
To count down the seconds
 
As destiny beckons
A                    B
Into the arms of the astral glow
 
 
[Chorus]
     G
And we're gonna see a rocket
C                         G
We're gonna see a rocket blast
                               C
Through the last of the atmosphere
          G
Oooo-oh, up and away to the great wide open
C
Adrift in an airless ocean
G
In a bliss of mystical motion
   C              E
--I'm stuck down here
                 E
I'm stuck down here
 
 
[Verse 2]
     C#m                        B      E
Just look at the ground on the grassy hill
       A                  B          E
It'll lift you up but it holds you still
     C#m        B    E
'Cause gravity binds us
     E        A   E
But glory defines us
            E                 B
--It's the greater pull of a perfect will
         C#m
And they say the ground is gonna
E
Quake and groan
      E
They say the sound's
        B       E
Gonna shake my bones
   C#m           B  E
It's so full of meaning
 
Alive and careening
A                      B
Into the grace of the great unknown
 
 
[Chorus]
     G
And we're gonna see a rocket
C                         G
We're gonna see a rocket blast
                               C
Through the last of the atmosphere
          G
Oooo-oh, up and away to the great wide open
C
Adrift in an airless ocean
G
In a bliss of mystical motion
   C              G
--I'm stuck down here
                 G
I'm stuck down here

[Verse 3 - Chorus]
     G                  D
We stood among the multitude
         C                 D
Saw the rocket rise in a fiery hue
  G                  C
It defied destruction to ride the eruption
G                               C
I have found this much is true:
G                      C
Love alone can carry you
     G
Oh, love alone. Love alone
     C                              G
Oh, love along can carry, carry you up
 
And away to the great wide open
C
Adrift in an endless ocean
G
In a bliss of mystical motion
C                          G
I have found this much is true:
     C
Oh, love alone
               G
Love alone can carry you
     C                       E
Oh, love alone can carry you

E                   B          E
Up and away to the great wide open

We're gonna see a rocket
E                 B
We're gonna see a rocket
C#m                 B         E
Up and away to the great wide open

We're gonna see a rocket rise

Up and away to the great wide open

Up and away to the great wide open
E                         B
We're gonna see a rocket rise...
