RIP Starman


[Verse 1]
            
Didn't know wh

              
at time it was

              
 the lights we

              
re low-ow-ow, 


I lean back on

 my radio-o-o
             
Some cat was l

              
aying down som

            
e rock'n'roll,

              
 'Lotta soul' 

          
he said....
            
Then the loud 

              
sound did seem

              
 to fa-a-ade, 


came back like

 a slow voice 

on a wave of p

ha-a-ase
             
That weren't n

              
o DJ that was 

            
hazy cosmic ji

         
ve....

[Chorus 1]

like to come a

             
nd meet us but

    
 he thinks he'

d blow our min

ds
