Ther's a s[G]tarman [Em]waiting in the sky
[Bm]He'd like to come and [Bm/A]meet [bass]us,
but he [D]thinks he'd blow our minds.
There's a [G]starman, [Em]waiting in the sky.
[Bm]He's told us not to bl[Bm/A]ow it[bass]
Cause he [D]knows it's all worthwhile.
He told me:

verse 2
I had to phone someone, so I picked on you.
Hey, that's far out so you heard him too.
Switch on the TV we may pick him up on channel two.
Look out your window I can see his light.
If we can sparkle he may land tonight.
Don't tell your poppa' or he'll get us locked up in fright.
