C
 Little Sophia Strange in ‘73
Her daddy’s yelling tirades at the TV
           Am           F  Ab Bb
Hey man be cool (oh oh oh)
C
 Sweeping the screen - rebel freak with a twist
A skinny genie come to grant her a wish
            Am            F  Ab Bb
Changes the rules (oh oh oh)
C
  He’s a real pretty thing

G            Am
 But now she looks to the stars
           Em
Oh with an ache in her heart
            F
For now the man who rocked the world
         C     Bm
Is going home
               Am
She’s reaching up for a song
           G
Oh but the music is gone
        F                  Fm
For the man who rocked the world
         C
Is going home

C
 Big Johnny Butterfingers in ‘81
Searchin the discos for that special someone
           Am            F  Ab Bb
It gets so tough (oh oh oh)
C
 Feelin' the pressure under laser lights
But his feet go magic dancin’ when the song is just right
                Am            F  Ab Bb
Yeah that’s the stuff (oh oh oh)
C
  Let’s dance, Johnny!

G           Am
 But now he looks to the stars
           Em
Oh with an ache in his heart
            F
For now the man who rocked the world
         C     Bm
Is going home
              Am
He’s reaching up for a song
           G
Oh but the music is gone
            F                  Fm
Because the man who rocked the world
         C     G
Is going home

Am                 G            F               C
Spaceman blasting away into the big black sky tonight
Am                G                 F     Bb
Smiling, riding a trail of stardust home

C
 Little Gangly Geeky strainin’ through ‘95
Left on the outside flyin far from the hive
             Am         F  Ab Bb
He don’t fit in (oh oh oh)
C
 Heart got a lesson from a stranger deranged
Said it’s ok man, it’s cool to be strange
           Am           F  Ab Bb
Make a new spin (oh oh oh)
C
  Seems so far away

G          Am
 But now I look to the stars
           Em
Oh with an ache in my heart
            F
For now the man who rocked the world
         C     Bm
Is going home
        Am
I wanna hear one more song
           G
Oh let the music live on
            F                  Fm
Because the man who rocked the world
         C
Is going home
