MR SPACEMAN    (intro)    (midi)

 

    D                                             E

1.    Woke up this morning with light in my eyes,

              A                            D

    and then realized it was still dark outside.

                                       E                               A                A7        D

    It was a light coming down from the sky, I don't know who or why.

 

D                                                  E

    Must be those strangers that come every night,

                   A                                     D

    whose saucer-shaped lights put people up tight,

                                                          E

    leave blue green foot prints that glow in the dark,

        A                                  D

    I hope they get home all right.

 

   A            G                               Em

Hey, Mr Spaceman, won't you please take me along,

    D

I won't do anything wrong !

  A             G                               Em                    A                 D

Hey, Mr Spaceman, won't you please take me along for the ride.

 

   D                                                 E

2.    Woke up this morning, I was feeling quite weird,

             A                              D

    had flies in my beer, my  toothpaste was smeared.

                                                     E

    Opened my windows, they'd written my name,

             A                           A7            D

    said,      " So long, we'll see you again!"    + CHORUS

 

3.  Instrumental = verse 2  + CHORUS
