This song has touched generations of listeners and was written by two legendary songwriting collaborators Elton John and Bernie Taupin. In this post, you’ll learn the chords, strumming patterns, and even cool ways that piano parts can be interpreted on guitar. So tune up and let’s dive into this “Rocket Man” guitar lesson! Who wrote Rocket Man? "Rocket Man" was written by the British singer-songwriter Elton John, with lyrics by Bernie Taupin. It was released on Elton John's 1972 album Honky Château. The song is one of Elton John's most iconic hits and remains a staple of his discography. "Rocket Man" was recorded at the Honky Château Studio in France. This studio was known for its unique recording methods, including the use of a mobile recording unit. The song reached the top ten on the charts in the United States and the United Kingdom. In 2018, "Rocket Man" was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame, a prestigious recognition of its lasting cultural and historical significance. The song has been widely covered and referenced in popular culture. Still to this day 50 years after its release with collaborations between artists like Elton John and Dua Lipa. The song's lyrics, written by Bernie Taupin, reflect a sense of isolation and detachment, telling the story of an astronaut's loneliness in space. Elton John's melodic and emotional delivery, combined with Taupin's brilliant lyrics, has made "Rocket Man" a timeless classic. What key does Elton John play Rocket Man in? “Rocket Man” is in the key of Gm/Bb major. The song starts off in the key of Gm but then once it gets to the chorus it is clearly Bb major. Then when the song ends, it just vamps back and forth from the I chord to the IV chord. (Bb to Eb) But since this post is primarily for guitarists. Let’s take a look at how to make the “Rocket Man” guitar chords easy. Since the song is played on piano, this often means that translating it to guitar may require more bar chords. So an easy way to play “Rocket Man” is to use a capo on the 3rd fret. With a capo on the 3rd fret, this now means that we’ll play the song in the key of Em/G major on guitar. But it will still sound in the correct concert pitch of Gm/Bb major. So with a capo on the 3rd fret, let’s check out the… Rocket Man Guitar Chords There are two main sections to know the Verse and the Chorus. Let’s break each part down individually. To play the Verse you will need to know 9 chords. Those chords are Em7, A7, G/B, C, Am, Am/G, D/F#, D/A, and D. You can see there are a lot of what are called slash chords. This is represented by chords like G/B, and Am/G. A slash chord is a specific chord notation used in music to indicate a chord with a note other than the root as the bass note. The notation has the main chord followed by a forward slash and the note name that should be played as the bass note. For example, if you see the chord notation "G/B," it means you should play a G major chord with a B note as the lowest (bass) note. This is a very common move for piano players to make. 👉Follow along with the FULL lesson here: https://www.jonmaclennan.com/blog/roc...
