Ziggy Stardust, by David Bowie, Tabbed by Mark Willett

[Intro]

E B Aadd9 E/G# E/F#


E B Aadd9 E/G# E/F#

last one do the "oh yeah, ah!" along as the song does

[Verse 1]

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

[Verse 2]

E
Ziggy really sang,
G#m A
screwed up eyes and screwed down hairdo,
G# A B
like some cat from Japan.
E
He could lick 'em by smiling,
C#m
he could leave them to hang.
F#
They came on so loaded, man,
A
well hung, snow white tan....

[Chorus]

F#m E5 D5 E5 F#m
So where were the spiders,
E5 D5 E5 F#m
While the fly tried to break our balls?
E5 D5
Just the beer light to guide us,
E5 B Bsus2
so we bitched about his fans
B C#
and should we crush his sweet hands?

[Interlude]

E B Aadd9 E/G# E/F#


E B Aadd9 E/G# E/F#

[Verse 3]

E
Ziggy played for time,
G#m A
Jiving us that we were voodoo.
G# A B
The kids were just crass,
E
He was the nazz,
C#m
With God given ass.
F#
He took it all too far,
A
But, boy, Could he play guitar!

[Chorus 2]

F#m E5 D5 E5 F#m
Making love to his ego,
E5 D5 E5 F#m
Ziggy sucked up into his mind,
E5 D5
Like a leper Messiah,
E5 B Bsus2
When the kids had killed the man
B C#
I had to break up the band!

[Interlude]

E B Aadd9 E/G# E/F#


E B Aadd9 E/G# E/F#

[Outro]

E B Aadd9 E/G# E/F# E B


Yeah... ooo....
Aadd9 E
ZIGGY PLAYED GUITAR!
