[Verse]
AA Friday night affaiEr
DOut in the city hEeat
AAlways a party theEre
DAlong the sordid strEeet
FAnd it was guaranteCed
GThe place to be was RockeDtown
[Verse]
AThe drinks were two for oEne
DInside the crowded bEars
AThe girls would make their Erun
ADown on the boulevarEd
FIt was the idol plCace
GWe lived the ways of RocketDown
FHang around by the sCtreet light
GIn the heart of the Dnight life
AThere came a certain Eman
DA stranger to the crEowd
AWe didn't understEand
DWhat he was all aEbout
FHe walked a different Cpace
GSo out of place in RocketCown
[Verse]
AThey made a fool oEf him
DThey teased him when heE'd speak
ABut when they knocked him Edown
DHe turned the other Echeek
FHe told me I could Cfind
GA life outside of RocDketown
FHang around by the strCeet light
GIn the heart of the nigDht life
[Chorus]
FWhat was his mission
AmWhere was he going
DmWhy was his heart light alCways gloGwing?
FAll I was missing
AmHe stood there holding
DmWhat was his secret
CCould I know Git?
[Verse]
ASome didn't like him Enear

ABut me, I longed to hEear
DAll that he had to sEay
FHe had a peace of Cmind
GI couldn't find in RockDetown
FAnd when I reached down inCside me
GI could feel the empDtiness
[Chorus]
FWhat was his mission
AmWhere was he going
DmWhy was his heart light alCways gloGwing?

[Intro]:

A E D E

[Verse]

A E

A Friday night affair

D E

Out in the city heat

A E

Always a party there

D E

Along the sordid street

F C

And it was guaranteed

G D

The place to be was Rocketown

[Verse]

A E

The drinks were two for one

D E

Inside the crowded bars

A E

The girls would make their run

A E

Down on the boulevard

F C

It was the idol place

G D

We lived the ways of Rocketown

F C

Hang around by the street light

G D

In the heart of the night life

A E

There came a certain man

D E

A stranger to the crowd

A E

We didn't understand

D E

What he was all about

F C

He walked a different pace

G C

So out of place in Rocketown

[Verse]

A E

They made a fool of him

D E

They teased him when he'd speak

A E

But when they knocked him down

D E

He turned the other cheek

F C

He told me I could find

G D

A life outside of Rocketown

F C

Hang around by the street light

G D

In the heart of the night life

[Chorus]

What was his mission

Where was he going

Dm C G

Why was his heart light always glowing?

All I was missing

He stood there holding

What was his secret

C G

Could I know it?

[Verse]

A E

Some didn't like him near

D E

Some laughed and turned away

A E

But me, I longed to hear

D E

All that he had to say

F C

He had a peace of mind

G D

I couldn't find in Rocketown

F C

And when I reached down inside me

G D

I could feel the emptiness

[Chorus]

What was his mission

Where was he going

Dm C G

Why was his heart light always glowing?

All I was missing

He stood there holding

What was his secret

C G

Could I know it?

[Verse]

A E

He said it's in the heart

D E

This change that comes to be

A E

Now he had done his part

D E

The rest was up to me

F C

As we were standing there

G D

He said a prayer for Rocketown

F C

As we were standing there

G D

He said a prayer for Rocketown

F C

He walked off silently

G D

And prayed for me

And Rocketown...
