EmDAmCG
[Verse 1]
EmDAm
On solid fuel and wires,
CDEm
Turn the key and light the fire,
DAmCGEm
We're leaving Earth today.
DAm
This rocket's burning bright,
CGEm
We'll soon be out of sight,
DAm
And orbiting in Space.
[Pre-Chorus]
DAm
Pushed back in my seat,
G
Look out my window,
DCadd9
There goes home.
DAm
That ball of shiny blue,
GDCadd9
Houses everybody anybody ever knew.
[Chorus]
GD
So sing your song, I'm listening,
AmGC
Out where stars are glistening,
DEmDCadd9
I can hear your voices bouncing off the Moon.
(C) GD
If you could see our nation,
AmGCD
From the International Space Station,
EmDC
You'd know why I want to get back soon (Get back soon).
[Verse 2]
EmDAm
Eighteen thousand miles an hour,
CDEm
Fueled by science and solar power,
DAmCGEm
The ocean's racing past.
DAm
At half a thousand tons,
CDEm
Ninety minutes, Moon to Sun,
DAm
A bullet can't go half as fast.
[Pre-Chorus]
DAm
Floating from my seat,
G
Look out my window,
DCadd9
There goes home (There goes home).
DAm
That brilliant ball of blue,
GDCadd9
Is where I'm from and also where I'm going to.
[Chorus]
GD
So sing your song, I'm listening,
AmGC
Out where stars are glistening,
DEmDCadd9
I can hear your voices bouncing off the Moon.
(C) GD
If you could see our nation,
AmGCD
From the International Space Station,
EmDC
You'd know why I want to get back soon (Get back soon).
[Bridge]
AED
All black and white just fades to gray,
AED
Where the Sun rises sixteen times a day (Day),
AED
You can't make out borders from up here,
AED
Just a spinning ball within a tiny atmosphere (Atmosphere).
[Break]
Cadd9
[Pre-Chorus]
DAm
Pushed back in my seat,
G
Look out my window,
DCadd9
Here comes home (Home).
DAm
What once was fueled by fear,
GDCadd9
Now has fifteen nations orbiting together here.
[Chorus]
GD
So sing your song, I'm listening,
AmGC
Out where stars are glistening,
DEmDCadd9
I can hear your voices bouncing off the Moon.
(C) GD
If you could see our nation,
AmGCD
From the International Space Station,
EmDC
You'd know why I want to get back soon (Get back soon).
[Outro]
GDCadd9
You'd know why I want to get back soon (Getting back to you, getting back to you),
GDCadd9
You'd know why I want to get back soon (Getting back to you, getting back to you),
GDCadd9
You'd know why I want to get back soon (Getting back to you, getting back to you),
GDCmaj7
You'd know why I want to get back soon.
