Mr. Spaceman chords
GWoke up this morning with A7light in my eyes
And D7then realized it was Gstill dark outside
It was a light coming A7down from the sky
I don't know D7who or Gwhy
GMust be those strangers that A7come every night
Those D7saucer shaped lights put Gpeople uptight
Leave blue-green footprints that A7glow in the dark
I D7hope they get home all Gright
DHey, Mr. CSpaceman
Won't you Amplease take me along
I Gwon't do anything wrong
DHey, Mr. CSpaceman
Won't you Amplease take me aD7long for a Gride
GWoke up this morning, I was A7feeling quite weird
Had D7flies in my beard, my Gtoothpaste was smeared
Over my window, they'd A7written my name
Said, D7so long, we'll see you aGgain
DHey, Mr. CSpaceman
Won't you Amplease take me along
I Gwon't do anything wrong
DHey, Mr. CSpaceman
Won't you Amplease take me aD7long for a Gride

DHey, Mr. CSpaceman
