(gtr.1 ^ )
Sleeping late on
Warm afternoon
Waking up to
Bright silver moon
Silent words from
My heart to you
My empty filled
Filled up with you
Rockets fly
Rockets fly
I slip another smile in your pocket
My heart is racing to you like a rocket
Rockets fly
Rockets fly
I slip another smile in your pocket
My heart is racing to you like a rocket
The two of us we dream like one
Our energy could light the sun
The two of us take breath as one
The two of us... The two of us...

version 2
p is a pull off
b is a bend up or down depending on the number directly after. If it doesn’t
have a number after it, its just a short small bend that’s not even the next
fret high. That’s probably confusing but just listen to the song cuz its
really easy.

yeah. Theres not really a verse guitar part – only the bass plays during the
verse. The two above parts come in randomly in the song. Just listen to it to
know when. Also when they do the first chorus there is no guitar just piano.
