[Intro]

            
        Hey no

       
w now


[Verse 1]


Didn't know wh

at time it was

, lights were 

low oh oh

I leaned back 

on my radio oh

 oh
             
Some cat was l

              
ayin' down som

            
e   rock 'n' r

              
oll, lotta' so

                
ul, he  said.

Then the loud 

sound did seem

 to fade.

Came back like

 a slow voice 

on a wave of p

hase.
             
That weren't n

              
o DJ. That was

            
    hazy cosmi

                   
c jive.


[Chorus]

              
There’s a     

         
  starman wait

ing in the sky
            
He'd    like t

              
o come and    

    
    meet us, 
        
But he thinks 

he'd blow our 

minds.
              
There's a     

             
  starman,    

    
    waiting in

 the sky.
            
He's    told u

          
s not to blow 

it 
              
Cause he      

  
  knows it's a

ll worthwhile.
             
He told me    

          
  let the chil

dren lose it.
            
Let the childr

    
en use it.
            
Let all the   

   
  children boo

gie.

Look out your 

window I can s
