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