Rocket Man Ukulele

(ver. 1)
Kate Bush
[Verse 1]
C#m7                                       F#m
      She packed my bag last night pre - flight,
C#m7                    F#
      Zero hour - 9  a. m.,
A                    C#m7  F#m                  B
    And I'm gonna be high----- ...as a kite by then!


[Verse 2]
C#m7                              F#
     I miss the earth so much, I miss my wife,
C#m7                      F#m
     It's lonely out in space,
A              C#m7  F#m                 B
     On such a time-------less flight!


[Chorus]
E                                           A
   And I think it's gonna be a long, long time,
                                           E
'Til touchdown brings me 'round again to find...
                                       A
...I'm not the man they think I am at home,
E                    A            F#m
    Ah, no, no, no,     ...I'm a rocket man,
   A                                     E           Esus4
Rocket man, burning out his fuse  ...up here alone!


[Verse 3]
C#m7                                   F#
      Mars ain't the kind of place to raise the kids,
C#m7                        F#m
      In fact, it's cold as hell,
A                       C#m7     F#m                B
    And there's no one there to raise them, if you did!


[Verse 4]
C#m7                                F#
      And all the science, I don't understand,
C#m7                                F#
      It's just my job five days a week,
          A   C#m7  F#m                 B
A rocket man------------,  ...a rocket man----!


[Chorus]
E                                          A
   And I think it's gonna be a long, long time,
                                           E
'Til touchdown brings me 'round again to find...
                                       A    E              A
...I'm not the man they think I am at home,    ah, no, no, no!


[Chorus]
E                                          A
   And I think it's gonna be a long, long time,
                                           E
'Til touchdown brings me 'round again to find...
                                       A
...I'm not the man they think I am at home,
E                    A            F#m
    Ah, no, no, no,     ...I'm a rocket man,
   A                                         E          Esus4
Rocket man, ...burning out his fuse  ...up here alone!
