A
And now I know
C#7      F#m     A       D              A           Bm
Spanish Harlem are not just pretty words to say


[Elton John:]

A
I thought I knew
C#7        F#m        A          D         A            Bm
But now I know that rose trees never grow in New York City


[Matthew Morrison:]

D            A         Bm                   A
Until you've seen this trash can dream come true
D                A          E                    A
You stand at the edge while people run you through


[Elton John:]

D                 A          E                     A
And I thank the Lord there's people out there like you
D                        A                     Bm       E

While Mona Lisas and Mad Hatters
        D                   A
Sons of bankers, sons of lawyers
     A                                    D
Turn around and say good morning to the night
      C#7                F#m E
For unless they see the sky
         D         A       B
But they can't and that is why
     D                E               D        A
They know not if it's dark outside or light
     D                E               D        A
(They know not if it's dark outside or light)

[Verse 2]
[Elton John:]

Em7                                  A9
She packed my bags last night - pre-flight
Em7               A9
Zero hour, nine A.M.
C                G         Am      D
And I'm gonna be high as a kite by then


[Matthew Morrison:]

Em7                         A9
I miss the earth so much, I miss my wife
Em7                 A9
It's lonely out in space
C         G        Am       D
On such a timeless flight   (Timeless flight)


[Chorus 2]
[Elton John:]

G                                     C
 And I think it's gonna be a long long time
                                        G
Til touchdown brings me 'round again to find
                                   C
I'm not the man they think I am at home
           G         A9
Oh no, no, no, I'm a rocket man

[Together:]

C                                   G           C
Rocket man, burnin' out his fuse up here alone


[Verse 3]
[Matthew Morrison:]

Em7                           A9
Mars ain't the kinda place to raise your kids
Em7                  A9
In fact it's cold as hell
C                   G       Am                D
And there's no one there to raise them if you did


[Elton John:]

Em7                               A9                    A9
And all this science, I don't understand (don't, don't understand)
Em7                         A9
It's just my job five days a-week

[Together:]

C        G  Am          D
Rocket man - - - rocket man


[Chorus 3]
[Matthew Morrison:]

G                                     C
 And I think it's gonna be a long long time

Til touchdown brings me 'round again to find
                                   C
I'm not the man they think I am at home
           G
Oh no, no, no,

[Together:]

     A9
I'm a rocket man
C                                   G           C
Rocket man, burnin' out his fuse up here alone
