Written by David Robert Jones

	  		 
Intro:  G  D (D4)  C9 G/B  Am  (4x)  

  

G                           Bm7  
Ziggy played guitar, jamming good  
                C           C    B  C    D  
With Wierd and Gilly and the Spiders from Mars  
                   G       D/F#         Em  
He played it left hand, but made it too far  
            A                       C   
Became the special man, and we were Ziggy's band  
G                        Bm7  
Ziggy really sang, with screwed up eyes and  
              C               C   B    C D  
Screwed down hairdo like some cat from Japan  
                     G                 D/F#         Em  
He could lick 'em by smiling, he could leave 'em to hang  
               A                        C  
He came on so loaded man, well hung and snow-white tan  

Am    G              F       G 
   But where were the spiders  
Am          G            F               G 
   While the fly tried to break our balls  
Am         G             F        G        
   Just the beer light to guide us  

           D                                      
And so we bitched about his fans  
              E  
And should we crush his sweet hands  


G D C9 G/B Am x2 


G                      Bm7  
Ziggy played for time, jiving us that  
         C             C    B    C    D       
We were voodoo and the kids were just crass  
            G        D/F#        Em  
He was the nazz with God-given ass  
           A                            C  
He took it all too far but boy could he play guitar  

Am          G              F     G  
   Making love with his ego  
Am          G          F            G  
   Ziggy sucked up into his mind  
Am          G          F  
   Like a leper messiah  
          D                                   
When the kids had killed the man  
          E 
I had to break up the band  

G D C9 G/B Am x3 

G D C9                G     
      Ziggy played guitar
