[Intro]
[Bb/A] [Fmaj7] [Bb/A] [Fmaj7]
[Verse1]
[Gm]Didn't know what time it was the lights were low-ow-ow.
[F] I lean back on my radio-o-o
[C] Some cat was laying down som[C7]some rock'n'roll,
'Lotta soul' he said. [F] [Ab] [Bb]
[Verse2]
[Gm] Then the loud sound did seem to fa-a-ade
[F] Came back like a slow voice on a wave of pha-a-ase
[C] That weren't no DJ that was [C7]hazy cosmic jive. [A] [G]
[Chorus]
There's a [F]starman [Dm]waiting in the sky
He'd [Am]like to come and [C]meet us
But he [C7]thinks he'd blow our minds.
There's a [F]starman [Dm]waiting in the sky
He's [Am]told us not to [C]blow it
'Cause he [C7]knows it's all worthwhile,
He told me,
[Bb] "Let the [Bbm]children lose it[F]it, let the [D7]children use it,
[Gm] Let all the [C]children boogie."

[Gm] Well I had to phone someone so I picked on you-ou-ou
[F] Hey that's far out, so you heard him too-oo-oo
[C] Switch on the TV we may [C7]pick him up on Channel 2[F]2. [Ab] [Bb]
[Verse4]
[Gm] Look out your window I can see his li-i-ight,
[F] If we can sparkle he may land toni-i-ight,
[C] Don't tell your papa or he'll [C7]get us locked up in a fright. [A] [G]
