Byrds, Mr. Spaceman (1966)
Key: :[C#] (w: Jim McGuinn)
VERSE 1:
[F#] Woke up this morning with
[G#7] light in my eyes
And
[C#] then realized it was
[F#] still dark outside
It was a light coming
[G#7] down from the sky
I
[C#] don't know who or
[F#] why
VERSE 2:
[F#] Must be those strangers that
[G#7] come every night
Those
[C#] saucer shaped lights put
[F#] people uptight
Leave blue-green footprints that
[G#7] glow in the dark
I
[C#] hope they get home all
[F#] right
CHORUS:
[C#] Hey, Mr.
[B] Spaceman,
Won't you
[G#m] please take me along,
I
[F#] won't do anything wrong
[C#] Hey, Mr.
[B] Spaceman,
Won't you
[G#m] please take me along for a
[F#] ride
VERSE 3:
[F#] Woke up this morning, I was
[G#7] feeling quite weird
Had
[C#] flies in my beard, my
[F#] toothpaste was smeared
Over my window, they'd
[G#7] written my name
Said,
[C#] so long, we'll see you a-
[F#]-gain
REPEAT CHORUS:
INSTRUMENTAL: [over VERSE]
