  The shrieking of nothing is killing me
      F
  Just pictures of Jap girls in synthesis
       Ab                                           Eb   Eb

Ashes to ashes, funk to funky
Db                Bbm
We know Major Tom's a junky
Gb                     Ab
Strung out in heaven's high
           Bbm7     Ab   Ebm   Bbm7   Ab   Ebm
Hitting an all time low

Bbm7   Ab   Ebm   Bbm7   Ab   Ebm   Ebm

VERSE:
Time and again I tell myself
I'll stay clean tonight
But the little green wheels are following me
Oh no, not again
I'm stuck with a valuable friend
I'm happy, hope you're happy too
One flash of light but no smoking pistol

BRIDGE:
I've never done good things
I've never done bad things
I never did anything out of the blue
I want an axe to brake the ice
I want to come down right now

CHORUS

Bbm7   Ab

      You'd better not mess with Major Tom
      Bbm7            Ab
      My mama said to get things done
            Ebm                  Bbm7
      You'd better not mess with Major Tom
      Ab              Ebm
      My mama said to get things done
            Bbm7                 Ab
      You'd better not mess with Major Tom   :|| (repeat to fade)
