David Bowie - Ziggy Stardust

Intro:
G D Cadd9 G/B G/A 

G 
Now Ziggy played guitar
Bm                              C 
Jamming good with Weird and Gilly
           B    C    D 
And the Spiders from Mars
                       G 
He played it left hand
                  Em 
But made it too far
               A 
Became the special man
             C 
Then we were Ziggy's band

Ziggy really sang
Screwed up eyes and screwed down hairdo
Like some cat from Japan
He could lick 'em by smiling
He could leave them to hang
They came on so loaded, man
Well hung, snow white tan

A5    G5            F5    G5 A5 
So where were the spiders
         G5                F5         G5 A5 
While the fly tried to break our balls?
           G5           F5 
Just the beer light to guide us
     G5 D5             
So we bitched about his fans
                E5 
And should we crush his sweet hands?

Interlude:
G D Cadd9 G/B G/A 

Ziggy played for time
Jiving us that we were voodoo
The kids were just crass
He was the nazz
With God given ass
He took it all too far
But, boy, Could he play guitar!

Making love to his ego
Ziggy sucked up into his mind
Like a leper Messiah
When the kids had killed the man
I had to break up the band!
