Verse 1
D 
I was born in 57
G 
And somewhere in the heavens
A 
D 
A sputnik started beeping night and day
A shiny little ball
G 
That could never ever fall
A 
D 
Passing slowly by the window where I lay
I went out there on the launch pads,
G 
up there with the Sputnik
A 
Stayed up all night
D 
when a man walked on the moon
I was born in the trail
G 
of the rocket's fiery trail
A 
And I saw that brighter future
D 
coming soon
We're the winners of the human race
G 
Floating weightless up in space
A 
Above the poor, and the heavy,
D 
and the doomed
Just one small step for man
G 
One giant leap from Vietnam
A 
D 
Walking with the man upon the moon
Yeah, I was out there on the launch pads
G 
Up there with the Sputnik
A 
Stayed up all night
D 
when the man walked on the moon
I was born in the trail,
G 
that rocket's fiery trail
A 
Cause I saw that brighter future
D 
G 
A 
coming soon
D 
G 
A 
D 
Meet the Hats
