INTRO:  G - D - Dsus4 - C9    x4

G                        Bm                          C 
Now Ziggy played guitar, jamming good with Weird and Gilly and the Spiders 
     D
from Mars

                  G                    Em
He played it left hand but made it too far

           A                                C
became the special man then we were Ziggy's Band



G                  Bm                               C
Ziggy really sang, screwed up eyes and screwed down hairdo  

                     D                         G        
like some cat from Japan, he could lick 'em by smiling, he could leave 'em 
   Em
to hang

           A                              C
Came on so loaded man, well hung and snow white tan



Am G              F        G  Am        G             F               G 
So where were the Spiders - - while the rats tried to break our balls

Am       G             F             
Just the beer light to guide us

      D                                    E 
So we bitched about his fans and should we crush his sweet hands


G - D - Dsus4 - C9     x4


G                      Bm                     C                  
Ziggy played for time, jibing us that we were voodoo, the kids were just  
D
crass
           G                   Em
He was the nazz with God given ass

           A                           C 
He took it all to far but boy could he play guitar

Am     G             F   G Am    G         F             G Am     G  
Making love with his ego,  Ziggy sucked up into his mind,  like a leper  
   F
messiah

         D                                 E
When the kids had killed the man, I had to break up the band oooh

G - D - Dsus4 - C9     x2

G   D    Dsus4       C9     G        D  Dsus4
Oh yeah,                  Oooo oooo 

C9               G 
Now Ziggy played Guitaaaaaaaaaar


C9 Riff = 032033,  020033,  000033. This creates an easy transition into
and from the surrounding chords. Some of the chords are accented by lifting
fingers off but this is as close as I could get. The original is a half
step down from this version but I find it easier to play like this.
