This is my first tab I've noticed none seem to have the strumming pattern for the song.
D stands for a down stroke, U stands for an up stroke and a * stands for strokes missed:
D**UD*U*UD*DUDU
Intro:
Fmaj7 Em Fmaj7 Em (repeat as many times as you want)
Verse:
CGround control to MajorEm Tom
CGround control to MajorEm Tom
AmTake your pAm7rotein pills and D7put
your helmet on
CGround control to Major EmTom
CCommencing countdown engines Emon
AmCheck ig-Am7nition and may D7God's
love be with you
Chorus:
CThis is Ground Control to Major
ETom
You've rE7eally made the Fgrade
And the Fmpapers want to Cknow
whose shirts you Fwear
Now it's Fmtime to leave the
Ccapsule if you Fdare
CThis is Major Tom to Ground
EControl
I'm sE7tepping through the dFoor
And I'm fFmloating the mCost
peculiar Fway
For hFmaj7ere
Am I Emsitting in a tin can
Fmaj7Far above the wEmorld
Bm. Am
Planet Earth is blue and there's
Gnothing I canF do
This part doesn't follow the strumming pattern
C F G A A
C F G A A
CThough I'm past one hundred
thousand Emiles
I'm E7feeling very Fstill
And I Fmthink my spaceship Cknows
which way to Fgo
Tell my Fmwife I love her very
Cmuch
FShe knows
GGround control to E7Major Tom
Your Amcircuit's dead
There's Am7something wrong
Can you D7hear me Major Tom?
Can you Chear me Major Tom?
Can you Ghear me Major Tom?
For Fmaj7here
Am I Emfloating in my tin can
Fmaj7Far above the Emmoon
BmPlanet Earth is bAmlue
And there's Gnothing I can Fdo
C F G A A
C F G A A
That's it! It's a really easy song except for the barre chords F and Fm which could be played
as the four-fingered F chord and FM as Fmaj7 if you really wanted to. Thank you for using this tab!
