[Verse] (Am Am Dm G x2) - F Dm (Am Am)
Standing there alone, the ship is waiting
All systems are go, are you sure
Control is not convinced but the computer
Has the evidence, no need to abort ╔══════════
The countdown starts - … ║ Major
Watching in a trance, the crew is certain Tom
Nothing left to chance, all is working (Coming
Trying to relax, up in the capsule ║ Home)
Send me up a drink jokes Major Tom ║ Peter
The count goes on ║ Schilling

4, 3, 2, 1 - Earth below us - Drifting, falling
Floating weightless - (Calling, calling home)
Second stage is cut, we're now in orbit [Intro]
Stabilizers up, running perfect (Am Am x5)
Starting to collect requested data (D D
What will it affect when all is done Am Am x2)
Thinks Major Tom - …
Back at ground control, there is a problem
Go to rockets full, not responding
Hello Major Tom, are you receiving [Hook]
Turn the thrusters on, we're standing by (x4)
There's no reply (Am Am)
[Verse] (/Am Am Em Em)
Across the stratosphere, a final message
Give my wife my love - Then nothing more - … - …
Far beneath the ship, the world is mourning
They don't realize he's alive
No one understands but Major Tom sees [Hook
Now the light commands, Lines #2~5]

I'm coming home (Ho-o-ome - … x4))) (x2~1)
