G                     Em          G                Em
We're out looking for astronauts, looking for astronauts
G                     Em          G                Em
We're out looking for astronauts, looking for astronauts
              G
It's a little too late, too late, too late for this
Em
Isn't it a little too late for this?
G
Little too late, too late for this
Em
Isn't it a little too late for this?

Em           G    Am          G
You know you have a permanent piece
Am           G              D
Of my medium-sized American heart

[Chorus]
G                     Em          G                Em
We're out looking for astronauts, looking for astronauts
G                     Em          G                Em
We're out looking for astronauts, looking for astronauts
       G
Are we gone
        Em                  G
Come on yeah, we know we're gone
G       Em
Bye bye bye
G       Em                 G
Bye bye bye, we know we're gone

[Verse 1]
Em            G                     Am
Take all your reasons and take them away
                 G                        Am
To the middle of nowhere, and on your way home
                G                  D
Throw from your window your record collection
Em                        G
They all run together and never make sense
    Am                         G
But that's how we like it, and that's all we want
Am                   G                 D
Something to cry for, and something to hunt

[Chorus]
       G
Are we gone
        Em                  G
Come on yeah, we know we're gone
G       Em
Bye bye bye
G       Em                 G
Bye bye bye, we know we're gone
G                     Em          G                Em
We're out looking for astronauts, looking for astronauts
G                     Em          G                Em
We're out looking for astronauts, looking for astronauts
              G
It's a little too late, too late, too late for this
Em
Isn't it a little too late for this?
G
Little too late, too late for this
Em
Isn't it a little too late for this?

[Verse 2]
Em           G    Am          G
You know you have a permanent piece
Am           G              D
Of my medium-sized American heart

   Em             G
So don't wear the watch
Am                       G
When you're out with the cunts
Am                     G                          D
You can break what you have, but the rest of it's mine

[Verse 3]
Em            G                     Am
Take all your reasons and take them away
                 G                        Am
To the middle of nowhere, and on your way home
                G                  D
Throw from your window your record collection
Em                        G
They all run together and never make sense
    Am                         G
But that's how we like it, and that's all we want
Am                   G                 D    Em
Something to cry for, and something to hunt
