[Intro]
G#/G D#maj7
G#/G D#maj7


[Verse 1]
Fm
Didn't know what time it was the lights were low-ow-ow.
D#
 I lean back on my radio-o-o
A#                            A#7
 Some cat was laying down some rock'n'roll,
                     D#  F# G#
'Lotta soul' he said.


[Verse 2]
Fm
 Then the loud sound did seem to fa-a-ade
D#
 Came back like a slow voice on a wave of pha-a-ase
A#                            A#7               G    F
 That weren't no DJ that was hazy cosmic jive.


[Chorus]
          D#       Cm
There's a starman waiting in the sky
     Gm               Gm7/F
He'd like to come and meet us
       A#                   A#7
But he thinks he'd blow our minds.
          D#       Cm
There's a starman waiting in the sky
     Gm             Gm7/F
He's told us not to blow it
          A#                 A#7
'Cause he knows it's all worthwhile,

He told me,
G#          G#m             D#         C/E
   "Let the children lose it, let the children use it,
Fm             A#
   Let all the children boogie."


[Interlude]
G#   D#   A#   D#   G#   D#   A#


[Verse 3]
Fm
  Well I had to phone someone so I picked on you-ou-ou
D#
  Hey that's far out, so you heard him too-oo-oo
A#                         A#7                      D#  F# G#
  Switch on the TV we may pick him up on Channel 2.


[Verse 4]
Fm
  Look out your window I can see his li-i-ight,
D#
  If we can sparkle he may land toni-i-ight,
A#                              A#7                        G    F
 Don't tell your papa or he'll get us locked up in fright.


[Chorus]
          D#       Cm
There's a starman waiting in the sky
     Gm               Gm7/F
He'd like to come and meet us
       A#                     A#7
But he thinks he'd blow our minds.
          D#       Cm
There's a starman waiting in the sky
     Gm             Gm7/F
He's told us not to blow it
          A#                  A#7
'Cause he knows it's all worthwhile,

He told me,
G#          G#m             D#         C/E
   "Let the children lose it, let the children use it,
Fm             A#
   Let all the children boogie."

D#         Cm
  Starman waiting in the sky
     Gm               Gm7/F
He'd like to come and meet us
       A#                    A#7
But he thinks he'd blow our minds.
          D#       Cm
There's a starman waiting in the sky
     Gm             Gm7/F
He's told us not to blow it
          A#                   A#7
'Cause he knows it's all worthwhile,

He told me,
G#          G#m             D#         C/E
   "Let the children lose it, let the children use it,
Fm             A#
   Let all the children boogie."


[Outro]
G#   D#   A#   D#

G#          D#            A#            D#
La la la la la, la la la la, la la la la, la la la la
G#          D#            A#            D#
La la la la la, la la la la, la la la la, la la la la
G#          D#            A#            D#
La la la la la, la la la la, la la la la, la la la la
G#          D#            A#            D#
La la la la la, la la la la, la la la la, la la la la
