Intro

(x2)

Verse

When he was born, the doc said "What's this?"

He's much too small, it's like he's weightless

When he turned six, they ran some tests

They said it's for science, it's patriotic

Chorus

Ah let's send him where no one else has gone

After all he can not speak or walk

Let's send him at the moon, do circles 'round the Sun

When he was twelve, the time had come then

And with his eyes, he said he loved them

In came the suits, in came the government

She stood and cried, she could not keep him

(Chorus)

Chords are the same as the verse for this part:

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey

Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey

Oh, oh, oh

Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey

Oh, oh, oh

Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho

But he came back, yeah he came back

He came in with a smile as big as the whole world

The doctors were shocked by his vital signs

She said would you like to go home now?

(Intro riff)

Harmonica solo chords

Then a breakdown: - - - - -
