           B (x2444x@1)  C (x32010@1)  DAnd (xx0232@1)the Spiders from Mars.

             CThen (x32010@1)we were Ziggy's band.

Verse II
Ziggy really sang,
screwed up eyes and screwed down hairdo,
              B (x2444x@1)  C (x32010@1)name="chord_xx0232@1">D
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....

Chorus I

While the fly tried to break our balls?
(Am)        G5 (355xxx@1)         F5Just (133xxx@1)the beer light to guide us,
(F5) G5 (355xxx@1)name="chord_xx0232@1">D                 Dsus2 (xx0230@1)so  we bitched about his fans
D (xx0232@1)           Eand (022100@1)should we crush his sweet hands?

Interlude

Verse III
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!

Chorus II
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!
