Is Somebody Singing

 
              
Intro: Em D Am C D 
 
Verse 1:
 
Em   D               Am 
  On solid fuel and wires, 
         C       D          Em 
Turn the key and light the fire, 
       D                Am   C   D 
We're leaving Earth today. 
 
Verse 2:
 
This rocket's burning bright, 
We'll soon be out of sight, 
And orbiting in Space. 
 
Pre-Chorus:
 
D                 Em    
Pushed back in my seat, 
            G     
Look out my window, 
D          Cadd9 
There goes home. 
D                  Em 
That ball of shiny blue, 
       G         D         Cadd9    D 
Houses everybody anybody ever knew. 
 
 
D (Let ring)   G          D 
So  sing your song, I'm listening, 
Am         C         Am 
Out where stars are glistening, 
D     Em               D                Am     C  
I can hear your voices bouncing off the Moon. 
(C)  D         G       D 
 If you could see our nation, 
         Am   C    Am          D 
From the International Space Station, 
Em               D                Am  
You'd know why I want to get back soon (Get back soon). 
 
 
 
Verse 3:
 
Eighteen thousand miles an hour, 
Fueled by science and solar power, 
The ocean's racing past. 
 
Verse 4 
At half a thousand tons, 
Ninety minutes, Moon to Sun, 
A bullet can't go half as fast. 
 
Pre-Chorus
 
Floating from my seat, 
Look out my window, 
There goes home (There goes home). 
That brilliant ball of blue, 
Is where I'm from and also where I'm going to. 
 
 
So sing your song, I'm listening, 
Out where stars are glistening, 
I can hear your voices bouncing off the Moon. 
If you could see our nation, 
From the International Space Station, 
You'd know why I want to get back soon (Get back soon). 
 
 
 
Bridge:
 
Em            D                   C 
All black and white just fades to gray, 
          Em        D              C 
Where the Sun rises sixteen times a day (Day), 
Em                 D               C 
You can't make out borders from up here, 
       Em                D          C 
Just a spinning ball within a tiny atmosphere (Atmosphere). 
 
Break 
(Strum each chord once) 
Cadd9, D, Cadd9 
 
Pre-Chorus
 
Pushed back in my seat, 
Look out my window, 
Here comes home (Home). 
What once was fueled by fear, 
Now has fifteen nations orbiting together here. 
 
 
So sing your song, I'm listening, 
Out where stars are glistening, 
I can hear your voices bouncing off the Moon. 
If you could see our nation, 
From the International Space Station, 
You'd know why I want to get back soon (Get back soon), 
 
 
 
Outro: 
You'd know why I want to get back soon (Getting back to you, getting back to you), 
You'd know why I want to get back soon (Getting back to you, getting back to you), 
You'd know why I want to get back soon (Getting back to you, getting back to you), 
You'd know why I want to get back soon.
