Tuning: Standard  
 
Here are the chords to the band's title track from their 2004 album. Much of this song 
is acoustic based, with Simon LeBon playing these chords live and Andy Taylor playing 
along for some of them. Andy also does some extra work on the electric in parts of the 
song, as well. 
 
Verse One: 
E5                  B5     A5  A5 
Makes my hair stand up on end 

Something alien happening 

Synchronized but don't comprehend 

Coz where I stop that's where you begin 
 
I know the moment I commit 

A pleasure rising when I take the hit 

And I'm addicted to state you're in 

Cos you're getting me out of it 


A5               E5              D5 
Wasted 

There is nothing gonna ace this 

And we're gonna go to space kid 

Cos I'm leaving with an astronaut

Verse Two: 
E5             B5     A5  A5 
Groovin-out to x-ray spex 

Something tells me you're the alien sex 

I can't imagine now; what comes next 

When this astronaut connects? 
 
Coming-on when I touch your skin 

A kind of strange light you emit 

I feel your gravity pull me in 

Now you're getting me out of it 


A5               E5              D5 
Wasted 

There is nothing gonna ace this 

And we're gonna go to space kid 

Cos I'm leaving with an astronaut

(Repeat Again)  

Bridge: 

(No Chords Played Here) 

Bare-feet for quantam leap 

Because space is hot and deep 

And we follow giant footprints as we fall... in 

falling like the twins through Saturn's holy rings 

And if they can't hold us 

Where it's gonna end up - anybody knows 
 
Interlude: 
A5               E5              D5 
An A-stronaut 

An A-stronaut 
A5               E5              D5 
Wasted 

There is nothing gonna ace this 

And we're gonna go to space kid 

Cos I'm leaving with an astronaut 

(Repeat Again)

Finale: 
A5               E5              D5 
Boop-Boop-Boop-Boop-Boop-Boop 
An A-stronaut 
Boop-Boop-Boop-Boop-Boop-Boop 
An A-stronaut 
Boop-Boop-Boop-Boop-Boop-Boop 
An A-stronaut 
Boop-Boop-Boop-Boop-Boop-Boop 
An A-stronaut 
 
 
There are many upstrokes here... and they follow the same pattern throughout the song: 
Em: down, up up up 
B: up, down, up 
Asus2: up 
Am: down, up 
 
A; down, up up up 
E: up, down, up 
D: up, down, up

And here's how it should look in tab form... try to hit some of the bottom strings when 
playing Em as well for a better sound.
