# Intro
Ground control to Major Tom, Ground control to Major Tom
Take your protein pills and put your helmet on
Ground control to Major Tom, commencing countdown engine's on
Check ignition and may God's love be with you
This is ground control to Major Tom, you've really made the grade!
And the papers want to know whose shirts you wear,
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
For here am I sitting in a tin can, far above the world
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?
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
