Standard Tuning
Capo 3
I use D/Dsus2 for riff throughout the song, but it works with just a plain D.
Intro:
She grew like a flower now sheâs pulling up her roots
sheâs trading in those small town shoes for some astronaut boots
her daddy says âweâll miss you just donât forget this place.
You better send us back a postcard when you hit the milky wayâ
now the countdown has begun
and itâs 5 4 3 2 1
sheâs gonna run into the sun, break through the atmosphere
dance with the stars, hang out on mars
light years away from here
sheâs finding her place up there in space
she wonât be back here soon
no sheâs not going home
till she leaves footprints on the moon
she waited for this moment since she was just a little girl
she knows thereâs something out there for her thatâs bigger than this world
now sheâs chasing down those comets
sheâs gonna catch them one by one
and sheâll get to where sheâs going if she can just hold on
sheâs gonna run into the sun, break through the atmosphere
dance with the stars, hang out on mars
lightyears away from here
sheâs finding her place up there in space
she wonât be back here soon
no sheâs not going home
til she leaves footprints on the moon
youâve come so far, know who you are
up so high but you canât look down
if you fall get up
gotta keep your head up now
* *
sheâs gonna run into the sun, break through the atmosphere
dance with the stars, hang out on mars
light years away from here
sheâs finding her place up there in space
she wonât be back here soon
no sheâs not going home
till she leaves footprints on the
Moon
Footprints on the moon
No sheâs not going home, till she leaves footprints on the moon
