Ziggy Stardust David Bowie
Intro: [ GG DDDDDD CCCC CC]X4
[G]Ziggy played guitar, [Bm]jamming good with Wierd and Gil[C]ly,
(trans) D
(and) the Spiders from Mars.
He played it left ha[G]nd, but made it too f[Em]ar,
became the [A]special [A7]man, then we were [C]Ziggy's band.
[G]Ziggy really sang, [Bm]screwed up eyes and screwed down hair[C]do,
(trans) D
like some cat from Japan.
He could lick 'em by smilin[G]g, he could leave 'em to h[Em]ang;
(they) came on so [A]loaded, [A7]man. Well-hung and [C]snow-white tan.
[A] So [G]where were the S[F]piders? [G]
[A] While the [G]fly tried to bre[F]ak our balls. [G]
[A] Just the [G]beer light to gu[F]ide us. [G]So we
[D]bitched about his fans and should we [E]crush his sweet hands...
(Intro x 2)
[G]Ziggy played for time, [Bm]jiving us that we were voo[C]doo,
(trans) D
the kids was just crass,
He was the [G]nazz, with God given [Em]ass,
He took it [A]all too [A7]far, but boy could he [C]play guitar.
[A] Making [G]love with his e[F]go, [G]
[A] Ziggy [G]sucked up in[F]to his mind, [G]
[A] like a [G]leper mes[F]siah, when [G]the
[D]kids had killed the man I had to [E]break up the band.
(Intro x 3) then:

Ziggy played ..... guitar.
(In acoustic version, after the second chorus Bowie immediately repeats
the second chorus, then he plays the intro several times and fades out,
without singing "Ziggy played guitar").
