Rocketown

Intro 3x: A  E  D  E

A             E         D
    A Friday night affair
           E      A
Out in the city heat
          E     D
Always a party there
           E        F
Along the sordid street
             C    G
And it was guaranteed
             D       A       E D E
The place to be was Rocketown

A                  E        D
   The drinks were two for one
            E       A
Inside the crowded bars
                 E          D
The girls would make their run
             E    F
Down on the boulevard
             C    G
It was the idol place
              D       A       E A G
We lived the ways of Rocketown
F                    C/E         Dm
  Hang around by the street light
                    E         A E 
In the heart of the night life
D E A E D E


A                E       D
   There came a certain man
            E       A
A stranger to the crowd
           E     D
We didn't understand
             E     F
What he was all about

             C         G
He walked a different pace
            D       A       E D E
So out of place in Rocketown

A                E     D
   They made a fool of him
                 E         A
They teased him when he's speak
                E          D
But when they knocked him down
              E       F
He turned the other cheek
              C      G
He told me I could find
            D       A      E A G
A life outside of Rocketown
F                    C/E         Dm
  Hang around by the street light
                     E
In the heart of the night life

  F
What was his mission
  E    E/G#    Am
Where    was he going
  F                     G    
Why was his heart light always 
   G#º
glowing?
F
All I was missing
 E  E/G#      Am
He stood there holding
  F
What was his secret
 G        G#º   A E D E A E D E
Could I know it?

A             E         D
  Some didn't like him near
                 E       A
Some laughed and turned away
           E         D
But me, I longed to hear
             E      F
All that he had to say
          C       G
He had a peace of mind
            D       A       E A G
I couldn't find in Rocketown
F                          C/E    
  And when I reached down inside 
 Dm
me
                    E
I could feel the emptiness

A             E         D
   He said it's in the heart
                E        A
This change that comes to be
           E        D
Now he had done his part
            E      F
The rest was up to me
             C       G
As we were standing there
                 D    A       E A G
He said a prayer for Rocketown
             C       G
As we were standing there
                  D   A       E A G
He said a prayer for Rocketown

               C     G
He walked off silently
                D
And prayed for me
     A          E D E A E D E
And Rocketown...
