[Intro]
[C] [G] [C] [G]
Hey now now
[Verse 1]
[Am]
Didn't know what time it was, lights were low oh oh
[G]
I leaned back on my radio oh oh
[D] [D7]
Some cat was layin' down some rock 'n' roll, lotta' soul, he
[G] [A#] [C]
said.
[Am]
Then the loud sound did seem to fade.
[G]
Came back like a slow voice on a wave of phase.
[D] [D7] [B]
That weren't no DJ. That was hazy cosmic jive.
[A]
[Chorus]
[G] [Em]
There’s a starman waiting in the sky
[Bm] [Bm/A]
He'd like to come and meet us,
[D7]
But he thinks he'd blow our minds.
[G] [Em]
There's a starman, waiting in the sky.
[Bm] [Bm/A]
He's told us not to blow it
[D7]
Cause he knows it's all worthwhile.
[C] [Cm]
He told me let the children lose it.
[G] [E]
Let the children use it.
[Am] [D]
Let all the children boogie.
[Bridge]

[Verse 2]
[Am]
I had to phone someone, so I picked on you.
[G]
Hey, that's far out so you heard him too.
[D] [D7] [G]
Switch on the TV we may pick him up on Channel Two.
[A#] [C]
[Am]
Look out your window I can see his light.
[G]
If we can sparkle he may land tonight.
[D] [D7] [B] [A]

There’s a starman waiting in the sky
