[Verse 1]
Em D
Didn't know what time it was the lights were low
A
I leaned back on my radio
A7 D F G
Some cat was layin' down some rock 'n' roll 'lotta soul he said

Then the loud sound did seem to fade
A
Came back like a slow voice on a wave of phase
A7 F# E
That weren't no D.J. that was hazy cosmic jive
[Chorus]
D Bm
There's a starman waiting in the sky
F#m F#m/E
He'd like to come and meet us
A A7
But he thinks he'd blow our minds
D Bm
There's a starman waiting in the sky
F#m F#m/E
He's told us not to blow it
A A7
'Cause he knows it's all worthwhile, he told me:
G Gm
Let the children lose it
D B7
Let the children use it
Em A
Let all the children boogie

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
A
If we can sparkle he may land tonight

Don't tell your poppa or he'll get us locked up in fright
[Chorus]
