[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]
