By:   David Bowie

[intro:]   | Fmaj7 |   | Em |  |
           | Fmaj7 |   | Em |  |
 
[pre-verse:]
C                          Em
  Ground control to Major Tom
C                          Em
  Ground control to Major Tom
Am           Am/G              D/F#
  Take your protein pills and put your helmet on
 C                         Em
(ten        nine         eight     seven  )
  Ground control to Major Tom
 C                             Em 
(six ...                        )                        
  Commencing countdown engines on
 Am        Am/G           D/F#                  D/F#  {let ring}
(two        one                  lift off )
    Check ignition and may God's love be with you__
 
[verse: 1]
 C                               E
This is ground control to Major Tom
                         F
You've really made the grade
         Fm             C                    F
And the papers want to know whose shirt you wear
          Fm                 C             F
Now it's time to leave the capsule if you dare

[verse: 2]
  C                            E
This is Major Tom to ground control
                           F
I'm stepping through the door
          Fm           C             F
And I'm floating in a most peculiar way
         Fm                C        F
And the stars look very different today
 
[chorus:]
    Fmaj7          Em
For here___ am I sitting in a tin can
Fmaj7            Em
Far___ above the world
  Bb             Am                 G           F   F
Planet Earth is blue and there's nothing I can do

      | C F G  | A A |
      | Fmaj7  |     | Em  |     |

      | D      |     | E   |     |
 
[verse: 3]
  C                                    E
Though I'm past one hundred thousand miles
                   F
I'm feeling very still
       Fm                 C                  F
And I think my spaceship knows which way to go
         Fm              C             F
Tell my wife I love her very much she knows
 
[bridge:]
G                 E7              Am                      Am/G
Ground control to Major Tom, your circuit's dead, there's something wrong
        D/F#
Can you hear me Major Tom?
        C
Can you hear me Major Tom?
        G                          
Can you hear me Major Tom? Can you 
 
[chorus:]
Fmaj7          Em
Here___ am I floating around my tin can
Fmaj7            Em
Far___ above the moon
  Bb             Am                G           F
Planet Earth is blue and there's nothing I can do
