Didn't know what time it was the lights were low-ow-ow.

F Dm
There's a starman waiting in the sky
Am Am7/G
He'd like to come and meet us
C C7
But he thinks he'd blow our minds.
F Dm
There's a starman waiting in the sky
Am Am7/G
He's told us not to blow it
C C7
'Cause he knows it's all worthwhile,
He told me,
Bb Bbm F D/F#
"Let the children lose it, let the children use it,
Gm C
Let all the children boogie."

Look out your window I can see his li-i-ight,

If we can sparkle he may land toni-i-ight,

Don't tell your papa or he'll get us locked up in fright.
