Rocketown(Chords)

	        Intro 3x: A  E  D  E 

A                  E           D 
    A Friday night affair 
                 E       A 
Out in the city heat 
                 E       D 
Always a party there 
                  E           F 
Along the sordid street 
                     C       G 
And it was guaranteed 
                     D           A              E   D   E 
The place to be was Rocketown 

A                           E           D 
   The drinks were two for one 
                   E           A 
Inside the crowded bars 
                            E              D 
The girls would make their run 
                       E       F 
Down on the boulevard 
                   C     G 
It was the idol place 
                        D          A                E  A  G 
We lived the ways of Rocketown 
F                                 C/E            Dm 
  Hang around by the street light 
                              E              A  E  D  E  A  E  D  E 
In the heart of the night life 

A                         E          D 
   There came a certain man 
                  E           A 
A stranger to the crowd 
                 E         D 
We didn't understand 
                       E       F 
What he was all about 
                      C            G 
He walked a different pace 
                   D          A              E   D   E 
So out of place in Rocketown 

A                         E       D 
   They made a fool of him 
                              E              A 
They teased him when he's speak 
                            E                 D 
But when they knocked him down 
                       E          F 
He turned the other cheek 
                      C       G 
He told me I could find 
                 D          A                E  A  G 
A life outside of Rocketown 
F                                 C/E            Dm 
  Hang around by the street light 
                               E 
In the heart of the night life 

     F 
What was his mission 
     E     E/G#     Am 
Where    was he going 
     F                               G           G#º 
Why was his heart light always glowing? 
F 
All I was missing 
  E   E/G#        Am 
He stood there holding 
     F 
What was his secret 
  G            G#º       A   E  D  E  A   E  D  E 
Could I know it? 

A                    E            D 
  Some didn't like him near 
                               E            A 
Some laughed and turned away 
                 E              D 
But me, I longed to hear 
                    E        F 
All that he had to say 
                 C           G 
He had a peace of mind 
                D          A                E  A  G 
I couldn't find in Rocketown 
F                                            C/E            Dm 
  And when I reached down inside me 
                               E 
I could feel the emptiness 

A                 E           D 
   He said it's in the heart 
                           E             A 
This change that comes to be 
                     E           D 
Now he had done his part 
                    E         F 
The rest was up to me 
                      C           G 
As we were standing there 
                           D     A                 E  A  G 
He said a prayer for Rocketown 
                      C           G 
As we were standing there 
                            D     A                 E  A  G 
He said a prayer for Rocketown 

                        C     G 
He walked off silently 
                            D 
And prayed for me 
          A                  E   D   E        A   E  D  E 
And Rocketown...
