  You've really made the grade
          Fm             C/E                   F
  And the papers want to know whose shirts you wear
           Fm                C/E            F
  Now it's time to leave the capsule if you dare

  This is Major Tom to ground control
  I'm stepping through the door
  And I'm floating in the most peculiar way
  And the stars look very different today

    Planet Earth is blue and there's nothing I can do

  Though I'm passed one hundred thousand miles
  I'm feeling very still
  And I think my spaceship knows which way to go
  Tell my wife I love her very much she knows

Ground control to Major Tom

Your circuit's dead, there's something wrong

Can you hear me Major Tom?
        C/G
Can you hear me Major Tom?

Can you hear me Major Tom? Can you

    Here am I floating round my tin can, far above the Moon
    Planet Earth is blue and there's nothing I can do
