[Intro]
I'm a rocket ship,
you're my planet

[Verse 1]
Ab
We've reached the time of
     Db
 the night, it's the
       Ab
final stage
         Ab
When the lights hit the
              Db
 sky and that shimmer
in your eye
       Ab             Db
Draw a shadow on your face
Fm
Took me a second just
to capture it
   Ab
My mind is figuring out
what the caption is
Db
I wrote (I wrote),
                Eb
"You're dynamite"
(dynamite)

[Pre-Chorus]
And I said
Ab  Db
Ooh-ooh, woah
Fm
I can't help myself
                 Db
 but to stop and stare
    Ab   Db
And ooh-ooh, woah
     Eb
When I lose focus,
                    Ab
you still draw me in

[Chorus]
             Ab
'Cause I'm a rocket ship,
 Db
 you're my planet
       Ab
When I lose my grip,
      Db
you pull me back
          Fm
Then I'll gravitate
   Db
 towards your madness
      Ab
I'm a rocket ship,
  Eb
you're my,
 you're my
Ab        Db
Universe, I'm attracted
       Ab
To the stars you take
     Db
and shoot them back
          Fm
Now we're dancing
          Db
round to all your magic
      Ab           Eb
I'm a rocket ship, you're
         Ab
 my planet

[Verse 2]
Ab
You said, "Forever",
           Db
now we're living up
              Ab
in outer space
      Ab
We're so far out,
           Db
up in the middle
of the clouds
   Ab                 Db
Between the night and day
Fm
Took me a sec' to get
 the hang of it
Ab
'Bout time that I let
go when I let you in
Db
I know (I know) you're
       Eb
 dynamite (dynamite)

How to play Rocketship: key, chords and progression

These are Rocketship chords by Llunr on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard.

Rocketship by Llunr is built around A♭ major (four flats: B♭, E♭, A♭, D♭), with 4 chords in all: Ab, Db, Fm and Eb.

Most of the song cycles through Db – Ab – Db – Fm (IV – I – IV – vi in A♭ major). In solfa, that is fah – doh – fah – lah. Get these 4 changes smooth and the rest comes quickly.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 1st fret and play the shapes G, C, Em, D (100% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 0% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
