[Em] ...On [D] solid fuel and [Am] wires
Turn the [C] key and light the [Em] fires
We're [D] leaving Earth to[Am] day [C] [Em]
This [D] rocket's burning [Am] bright
We'll [C] soon be out of [Em] sight
And [D] orbiting in [Am] space [C] [Em]
[D] Pushed back in my [Am] seat
[C] ...Look out my [Em] window: [D] there goes [Am] home [C] [Em]
[D] ...That ball of shiny [Am] blue
[C] ...Houses [Em] everybody [D] anybody ever [Am] knew [C] [Em]
So sing your [Em] song, I'm [D] listening
[Am] Out where stars are [C] glistening
I can [Em] hear your voices [D] bouncing off the [Am] moon [C]
If you could [Em] see our [D] nations
From the [Am] International [C] Space Station
You'd [Em] know why I'd [D] want to get back [Am] soon [C] [Em]
Eighteen [D] thousand miles an [Am] hour
Fuelled by [C] science and solar [Em] power
The [D] oceans racing [Am] past [C] [Em]
[D] At half a thousand [Am] tons
Ninety [C] minutes Moon to [Em] Sun
A [D] bullet can't go [Am] half this fast [C] [Em]
[D] Floating from my [Am] seat
[C] ...Look out my [Em] window: [D] there goes [Am] home [C] [Em]
That [D] brilliant ball of [Am] blue
[C] ...It's [Em] where I'm from, it's [D] also where I'm going [Am] to [C] [Em]
So sing your [Em] song, I'm [D] listening
[Am] Out where stars are [C] glistening
I can [Em] hear your voices [D] bouncing off the [Am] moon [C]
If you could [Em] see our [D] nations
From the [Am] International [C] Space Station
You'd [Em] know why I'd [D] want to get back [Am] soon [C] [Em]
[A] All black and white just fades to [D] grey
Where the [A] sun rises sixteen times a [D] day
[A] You can't make out borders from up [D] here
Just a [A] spinning ball within a tiny [D] atmosphere [C] [D]
[D] Pushed back in my [Am] seat
[C] ...Look out my [Em] window: [D] there goes [Am] home [C] [Em]
[D] What once was fuelled by [Am] fear
[C] ...Now has [Em] fifteen nations [D] orbiting to[Am] gether here [C] [Em]
So sing your [Em] song, I'm [D] listening
[Am] Out where stars are [C] glistening
I can [Em] hear your voices [D] bouncing off the [Am] moon [C]
If you could [Em] see our [D] nations
From the [Am] International [C] Space Station
You'd [Em] know why I'd [D] want to get back [Am] soon [C]
You'd [Em] know why I'd [D] want to get back [Am] soon [C]
You'd [Em] know why I'd [D] want to get back [Am] soon [C] [Em]
