Verse 1:
[Dm] Didn't know what time it was and the lights were low [C]
I leaned back on my radio [G]
Some cat was layin' down some [G7]rock 'n' roll 'lotta soul, he said [C] [Eb] [F]
[Dm] Then the loud sound did seem to fade [C]
Came back like a slow voice on a wave of phase [G]
That weren't no D.J. that was [G7] hazy cosmic jive [E7] [D]
|Chorus:
|There's a [C] starman [Am] waiting in the sky
|He'd [Em] like to come and meet us
|But he [G] thinks he'd blow our minds
|There's a [C] starman [Am] waiting in the sky
|He's [Em] told us not to blow it
|'Cause he [G] knows it's all worthwhile
|He told me
|[F] Let the children lose it
|[C] Let the [A7] children use it
|[Dm] Let all the [G7] children boogie

Verse 2:
[Dm] I had to phone someone so I picked on you [C]
Hey, that's far out so you heard him too [G]
Switch on the TV we may [G7] pick him up on Channel Two [C] [Eb] [F]
[Dm] Look out your window I can see his light [C]
If we can sparkle he may land tonight [G]
Don't tell your poppa or he'll [G7] get us locked up in fright [E7] [D]

|There's a [C] starman [Am] waiting in the sky
|He's [Em] told us not to blow it
