Standing there alone
The ship is waiting

Watching in a trance
The crew is certain

All is working
Em
Trying to relax
Up in the capsule
Am
"Send me up a drink"
D           C

Across the stratosphere
A final message
Am
"Give my wife my love"
D              Em
Then nothing more

Far beneath the ship
The world is mourning
