Ashes to Ashes

Am	G	Dm	Am
G                                                   Em 
Do you remember a guy that's been In such an early song
C                                                         D
I've heard a rumor from ground control Oh no don't say it's true
F						    C             G/B
They got a message from the action man I'm happy hope you're happy too
F                                    G    E/G#
I've loved all I've needed love Sordid details following
A                                                     E
The shrieking of nothing is killing me Just pictures of Jap girls in synthesis
G                                                             D    C                       Em 
And I ain't got no money and I ain't got no hair But the planet is glowing
F                      G		       C                       Am
Ashes to Ashes funk to funky We know major Tom's a junky
F                                G 	   Am                     G      Dm     Am
Strung our in heaven's high Hitting an all time low
G				    Em
Time and again I tell myself   I'll stay clean tonight
C                                                         D
But the little green wheels are following me Oh no not again
F					C              G/B                      F
I'm stuck with a valuable friend  I'm happy hope you're happy too
                           G                     E/G# A
One flash of light but no smoking pistol I've never done good things
E				 G                                                  D
I've never done bad things I've never done anything out of the blue
F				      C
I want an axe to break the ice  I want to come down right now
F                      G                  C                       Am 
Ashes to Ashes funk to funky We know major Tom's a junky
F                                G     Am
Strung our in heaven's high  Hitting an all time low
Am  G  Dm  Am repeat
My mama said to get things done You'd better not mess with major Tom
