[Verse 1]
F Am
I’m all wires an aluminum, comet dust and nitrogen,
Dm Bb
I followed everyone’s command, first 18 years were fine and grand
F Am
No space junk upon this ship, flying high at 36,
Dm Bb
without flash without conceit, I’ve done all they asked of me
Bb
[Chorus 1]
C Dm Bb F
But every journey that begins should have an ending
C Dm Bb F
Besides this daily stream of data I keep sending
C Dm Bb F
Beyond the stars where time and space are bending
Dm C Bb
I miss home
[Verse 2]
F Am
Liftoff August 78, no malfunction to relate,
Dm Bb
30 billion miles I’ve come, all those trips around the sun
F Am
For my trials with ice and fire, they came to deal(?) that I’d retire
Dm Bb
Arianespace wants me on view, on Independence Avenue
Bb
[Chorus 2]
C Dm Bb F
But the brass they disapproved of my ambitions
C Dm Bb F
After all these years of silence I still listen
C Dm Bb F
Between fever dreams of static and transmissions
Dm C Bb
I miss home
[Instrumental]
C Dm Bb F

[Verse 3]
F Am
Wave goodbye to what you know, don’t be sad to see it go,
Dm Bb
I passed the moon and earth today, oh so close, so far away
F Am
Thrusters useless fuel used up, contact lost completely fucked,
Dm Bb
Unless they send someone at last, to try and catch me as I pass,
