[Verse 1]
G
Now, Ziggy played guitar

Bm                          C
Jamming good with Weird and Gilly

                     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

G
Ziggy really sang

Bm                                    C
Screwed up eyes and screwed down hair-do

          .          D
Like some cat from Japan

                     G
He could lick 'em by smiling

                       Em
He could leave them to hang

           A
Came on so loaded, man

              C             Am
Well hung and snow-white tan
[Chorus 1]
   G                  F E F E F E F G Am
So where were the Spiders

          G                F E F E F E G Am
While the flies tried to break our balls?

         G                 F E F E F E G Am
Just the bare light to guide us

      D
So we bitch about his fans

              E/G
and should we crush his sweet hands?
[Bridge?]
G D Dsus4 D Dsus4 D D/C D/B A F#
Oh

G D Dsus4 D Dsus4 D D/C D/B A F#
Oh, Oh-oh
[Verse 2]
G
Ziggy played for time

Bm                        C
Jiving us that we were voodoo

                       D
But the kids were just crass

               G
Ah, he was the nazz,

               Em
with God-given ass

               A
He took it all too far

                  C          Am
But boy, could he play guitar
[Chorus 2]
       G                 F E F E F E F G Am
Making love with his ego

      G                    F E F E F E F G Am
Ziggy sucked up into his mind

       G             F E F E F E F G Am
Like a leper messiah

         D
When the kids had killed the man

         E/G
I had to break up the band
[Bridge]
G D Dsus4 D Dsus4 D D/C D/B A F#
Oh                          Oh, yeah

G D Dsus4 D Dsus4 D D/C D/B A F#
                              Ooh-ooh

G D Dsus4 D Dsus4 D D/C D/B A F#
                              Oh yeah
[Outro] G D Dsus4 D Dsus4 D D
