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