[Intro]
Em  D  Am  C  G

[Verse 1]
Em   D               Am
  On solid fuel and wires,
         C       G          Em
Turn the key and light the fire,
       D                Am   C   G
We're leaving Earth today.

[Verse 2]
Em      D                Am
   This rocket's burning bright,
      C       G        Em
We'll soon be out of sight,
     D             Am   C   G
And orbiting in Space.

[Pre-Chorus]
D                 Em
Pushed back in my seat,
            G
Look out my window,
D          Cadd9
There goes home.
D                  Em
That ball of shiny blue,
       G         D         Cadd9    D
Houses everybody anybody ever knew.

[Chorus]
D (Let ring)   G          D
So  sing your song, I'm listening,
Am         C         Am
Out where stars are glistening,
D     Em               D                Am     C
I can hear your voices bouncing off the Moon.
(C)  D         G       D
 If you could see our nation,
         Am   C    Am          D
From the International Space Station,
Em               D                Am
You'd know why I want to get back soon (Get back soon).

[Verse 3]
Em          D                  Am
   Eighteen thousand miles an hour,
          C           G      Em
Fueled by science and solar power,
     D               Am   C   G
The ocean's racing past.

[Verse 4]
Em    D                Am
   At half a thousand tons,
       C        G        Em
Ninety minutes, Moon to Sun,
   D                        Am   C   G
A bullet can't go half as fast.

[Pre-Chorus]
D                Em
Floating from my seat,
            G
Look out my window,
D          Cadd9
There goes home (There goes home).
D                      Em
That brilliant ball of blue,
   G                  D                Cadd9    D
Is where I'm from and also where I'm going to.

[Chorus]
D (Let ring)   G          D
So  sing your song, I'm listening,
Am         C         Am
Out where stars are glistening,
D     Em               D                Am     C
I can hear your voices bouncing off the Moon.
(C)  D         G       D
 If you could see our nation,
         Am   C    Am          D
From the International Space Station,
Em               D                Am
You'd know why I want to get back soon (Get back soon).

[Bridge]
Em            D                   C
All black and white just fades to gray,
          Em        D              C
Where the Sun rises sixteen times a day (Day),
Em                 D               C
You can't make out borders from up here,
       Em                D          C
Just a spinning ball within a tiny atmosphere (Atmosphere).

[Break]
(Strum each chord once)
Cadd9  D  Cadd9

[Pre-Chorus]
D                 Em
Pushed back in my seat,
            G
Look out my window,
D          Cadd9
Here comes home (Home).
D                       Em
What once was fueled by fear,
        D               D           Cadd9        D
Now has fifteen nations orbiting together here.

[Chorus]
D (Let ring)   G          D
So  sing your song, I'm listening,
Am         C         Am
Out where stars are glistening,
D     Em               D                Am     C
I can hear your voices bouncing off the Moon.
(C)  D         G       D
 If you could see our nation,
         Am   C    Am          D
From the International Space Station,
Em               D                Am 
You'd know why I want to get back soon (Get back soon).

[Otro]
Em               D                Am
You'd know why I want to get back soon (Getting back to you, getting back to you),
Em               D                Am
You'd know why I want to get back soon (Getting back to you, getting back to you),
Em               D                Am
You'd know why I want to get back soon (Getting back to you, getting back to you),
Em (Strum once)  D (Strum once)   Am (Strum once)
You'd know why I want to get back soon.
