ziggy stardust , by david bowie , tabbed by mark willett
intro & interlude
G D Cadd9 G/B G/a x3 , last one do the “oh yeah , ah!” along as the song does
verse i
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 ,
( G ) Em
but made it too far .
A
became the special man ,
C
then we were ziggy’s band .
verse ii
ziggy really sang ,
screwed up eyes and screwed down hairdo ,
B C 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
Am G5 F5 G5 Am
so where were the spiders ,
( Am ) G5 F5 G5 Am
while the fly tried to break our balls?
( Am ) G5 F5
just the beer light to guide us ,
( F5 ) G5 D Dsus2
so we bitched about his fans
D E
and 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!
interlude
outro
G D Cadd9 G/B G/A G D
yeah . . . ooo . . . .
Cadd9 G
ziggy played guitar!
hoped you liked it , one of the best songs ever , and really fun to play .
peace , love , and all that jazz ,
mark .
