Verse 1:
E E E E E E E E B B
It started with a low light, next thing I knew they ripped me from my bed.
C#m C#m B B B B E E
And then they took my blood type, they left a strange impression in my head.
E E E E E E B B
You know that I was hopin', that I could leave this starcrossed world behind.
C#m C#m B B B B
But when they cut me open, I guess I changed my mind.

Prechorus 1:
A A B B C#m C#m G#m G#m
And you know I might have just flown too far
A A B B C#m C#m G#m G#m
from the floor this time, 'cos they're calling me by my name.
A A B B G#m G#m C#m C#m
And they're zipping white light beams, disregarding bombs and satellites.
B B B B B B B B
That was the turning point, that was one lonely night.

Well now I'm back at home and, I'm looking forward to this life I live.
C#m C#m B B B B E E
You know it's gonna haunt me, so hesitation to this life I give.
E E E E E E B B
You think you might cross over, you're caught between the devil & the deep blue sea.
C#m C#m B B B B
You better look it over, before you make that leap.

Prechorus 2:
A A B B C#m C#m G#m G#m
And you know I'm fine, but I hear those voices
A A B B C#m C#m G#m G#m
at night sometimes, that justify my claim.
A A B B G#m G#m C#m C#m
And the public don't dwell on my transmission, 'cos it wasn't televised.
B B B B B B B B
But it was the turning point, oh, what a lonely night!

E E C#m C#m E E A A
The starmaker says it ain't so bad, the dream-maker's gonna make you mad.

My global position systems are vocally addressed.

They say the Nile used to run from East to West.
C#m C#m C#m C#m A A B B A A
They say the Nile used to run, from East to West.

at night sometimes.

About this song: Spaceman

Spaceman is a song on The Killers third studio album Day & Age. It was first played live at the Highline Ballroom, New York on the 29th July 2008, for a special fanclub only show, as far is so far publicly known. Its original form, as can be found in fan videos, had a slightly different introduction and lyrics, likely attributable to its being not finalized at the time. It has since been played at other shows including the 2008 Reading and Leeds Festivals.
