Bb               Gm              F
(Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha)

Bb
   They say she's pretty
G#
   She comes from money
Gm                                      F
   She gives you everything I couldn't give
Bb
   You take her to the beach
G#
   You talk rationally
Gm                                        F
   That's the kind of life I could never live

              Bb
'Cause I'm an astronaut
     G#
I'm tethered to the stars
             Gm                             F
Yeah, I'm an astronaut who still thinks the world could be ours
          Bb
But I sit here and watch you and her from outer space
     G#
I'll watch every part of me be replaced
     Gm                 F
And slowly, but surely, I'll drift away

Bb
   They say you sing to her
G#
   She understands your humor
Gm                                                 F
   I'm glad you found yourself someone you can tie down
Bb                                G#
Oh, Let me ask you something small, are you recycling it all?
        Gm
All the sweet little words and the perfect slow burns
         F                                      F
I wonder if you told her I did that shit first (Mmm)

           Bb                             G#
But I'm an astronaut, could never keep my feet on the ground
             Gm                                            F
Yeah, I'm an astronaut, my dreams were too big to make you proud
         Bb
So I sit here and watch you and her from outer space
     G#
I'll watch every part of me be replaced
     Gm                 F
And slowly, but surely, I'll drift away

      Bb
You couldn't handle my lunacy, my voice, my opportunity
     G#
The distance and my confidence, no you couldn't put up with it
     Gm
You left me stranded in the stars and ran into another's arms
         F
Will you see me on the TV and be proud?
       F                                  F
Until then, just please do not forget about

            Bb              G#
Your little astronaut who's tethered to the stars
            Gm                             F
Your little astronaut who still thinks the world could be ours
       Bb
Who's sitting and watching you and her from outer space
     G#
I'll watch every part of me be replaced
     Gm                    F
And slowly, but surely, I'll be okay
Gm           F
   I'll be okay
