Intro 3x: GDCDGDCA Friday night affair
DG
Out in the city heat
DC
Always a party there
DD#
Along the sordid street
A#F
And it was guaranteed
CGDCD
The place to be was Rocketown
GDC
The drinks were two for one
DG
Inside the crowded bars
DC
The girls would make their run
DD#
Down on the boulevard
A#F
It was the idol place
CGDGF
We lived the ways of Rocketown
D#A#/DCm
Hang around by the street light
DGDCDGDCD
In the heart of the night life
GDC
There came a certain man
DGA stranger to the crowd
DC
We didn't understand
DD#
What he was all about
A#F
He walked a different pace
CGDCD
So out of place in Rocketown
GDC
They made a fool of him
DG
They teased him when he's speak
DC
But when they knocked him down
DD#
He turned the other cheek
A#F
He told me I could find
CGDGFA life outside of Rocketown
D#A#/DCm
Hang around by the street light
D
In the heart of the night life
D#
What was his mission
DD/F#Gm
Where was he going
D#FF#
Why was his heart light always glowing?
D#
All I was missing
DD/F#Gm
He stood there holding
D#
What was his secret
F G#º GDCDGDCD
Could I know it?
GDC
Some didn't like him near
DG
Some laughed and turned away
DC
But me, I longed to hear
DD#
All that he had to say
A#F
He had a peace of mind
CGDGF
I couldn't find in Rocketown
D#A#/DCm
And when I reached down inside me
D
I could feel the emptiness
GDC
He said it's in the heart
DG
This change that comes to be
DC
Now he had done his part
DD#
The rest was up to me
A#F
As we were standing there
CGDGF
He said a prayer for Rocketown
A#F
As we were standing there
CGDGF
He said a prayer for Rocketown
A#F
He walked off silently
C
And prayed for me
GDCDGDCD
And Rocketown...
