Verse:
I was born on Halloween, in Roma, Italy
EJust another white boy stariAng at Ethe stars
EAnd when I turned 39 me and the boys weB7 hit the sky
And headeEd where they’d never beAen before E
ChorAus: B E E7
One small step for man, Jesus, Goddamn
A22 hours hanging in the aEir
ESometimes you take the fB7ame, sometimes you sit backstage
But Eif it weren’t for me them boyAs would still be tEhere
A B E
Repeat
When it came time to land, them boys they shook my hand
They said, “we’ll call you up when we need a ride”
They went down to the ground, and I floated around
With all them stars still twinkling in my eyes
(chorus)
Now the history books will write about that fateful night
Them two fellas dancing on the moon
But they won’t say nothing bout me, waiting patiently
To bring them boys safely back home to you
(chorus)
