D A D  D  E  D A   D E A

[Verse]
D         A           D
Up in the hills above Bradford
D                     E
Outside the Napalm factory

(They're floating above us)
D           A
Ghosts of American astronauts
D           E           A
Glow in the headlight's beam

D           A              D
It's just a small step for him
D                      E
It's a nice break from Vietnam

(Filmed in a factory)
D          A
Out on the back lot in Houston
D            E           A
Who says the world isn't flat

[Chorus]
B                       E
A flag flying free in a vacuum
A                    E
Nixon sucks a dry martini
D          A       D
Ghosts of American astronauts
D           E       A
Stay with us in our dreams

[Verse]
D                 A              D
John Glenn drinks cocktails with God
     D                E
In a cafe in downtown Saigon

(High above them)
D         A
Ghosts of American Astronauts
    D            E            A
Are drifting too close to the sun

[Chorus]
  B                     E
A flag flying free in a vacuum
A                   E
Nixon sucks a dry Martini
D         A        D
Ghosts of American astronauts
D           E       A
Stay with us in our dreams
