This is my rendition of how to play Rocketeer by Far East Movement. Big shout out
to FM for consistently breaking down stereotypes!! You guys inspire us all!
If you don't mind barring, I use this 4 chord progression: Cmaj7, Am, Bm, Bdom7
If you have a hard time barring, you can also play in a different key: Em, C, G, D
Hope you guys like! Enjoy!

VERSE:
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/f/far_east_movement/rocketeer_crd.html ]
Where we go we don't need roads, roads
Where we stop nobody knows, knows
To the stars if you really want it
Got, got a jetpack with your name on it
Above the clouds in the atmosphere, phere
Just say the words and we outta here, outta here
Hold my hand if you feeling scared, scared
We flying up, up outta here
Here we go, come with me
There's a world out there that we should see
Take my hand, close your eyes
With you right here, I'm a rocketeer,
CHORUS:
Let's fly
Up, up here we go, go
Let's fly
Up, up here we go, go, here we go
Where we stop nobody knows, knows
VERSE:
Baby, we can stay fly like a G6
Shop the streets of Tokyo, get you fly kicks
Girl you always on my mind, got my head up in the sky
And I'm never looking down feeling priceless, yeah
Where we at, only few have known
Go on the next level, Super Mario
I hope this works out, Cardio
Til' then let's fly, Geronimo
Here we go, come with me
There's a world out there that we should see
Take my hand, close your eyes
With you right here, I'm a rocketeer
Nah, I never been in space before
But I never seen a face like yours
You make me feel like I could touch the planets
You want the moon, girl watch me grab it
See I never seen the stars this close
You got me stuck off the way you glow
I'm like, oh, oh, oh, oh
I'm like, oh, oh, oh, oh
Here we go, come with me
There's a world out there that we should see
Take my hand, close your eyes
With you right here, I'm a rocketeer
CHORUS THEN FADE OUT:
Let's fly
Up, up here we go, go
Let's fly
Up, up here we go, go
Where we stop nobody knows, knows, knows
