Ground Control to Major Tom

Ground Control to Major Tom

Lock your Soyuz hatch

And put your helmet on

(10) Ground Control (9) to Major Tom (8)

(7, 6) Commencing (5) countdown, engines on (4, 3, 2)

Detach from station (1)

And may God's love (Liftoff) be with you

This is Ground Control to Major Tom

You've really made the grade

And the papers want to know whose shirt you wear

But it's time to guide the capsule if you dare

This is Major Tom to Ground Control

I've left for ever more

And I'm floating in a 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 left to do

Though I've flown one hundred thousand miles

I'm feeling very still

And before too long, I know it's time to go

Our commander comes down back to Earth and rolls

Ground Control to Major Tom

The time is near, there's not too long

Can you hear me, Major Tom?

Can you hear me, Major Tom?

Can you hear me, Major Tom?

Can you....

Here am I floating in my tin can

Last glimpse of the world

Planet Earth is blue

And there's nothing left to do
