G                         Bm  
  Ziggy played guitar,    jamming good 
               C(barred, slide up)     C#   D
with Weird and Gilly and the Spiders from Mars.

                  G                     Em
He played it left hand, but made it too far 
                   A                   C
became the special man, and we were Ziggy's band.

G                            Bm         
     Ziggy really sang, with screwed up eyes and 
               C(barred, slide up)      C#  D
screwed down hair-do like some cat from Ja-pan.

                      G                             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.


             (So Where were the Spiders......)

A(Barred slide down)      G                F  F7Madd11+/E      
                    So where were the spi-ders, 
G  A                       G                      F  F7Madd11+/E* G
                while the fly tried to break our balls.
A              G                  F  F7Madd11+/E       
     Just the beer light to guide us. 

          D (barre)                             E
And so we bitched about his fans and should we crush his sweet hands.

G                          Bm
    Ziggy played for time, jiving us that 
          C(barred, slide up)     C#   D
we were voodoo and the kids were just crass.
           G                   Em
He was the nazz with God-given ass. 
           A                                 C
He took it all too far but boy could he play guitar.

A(Barred slide down)      G                F  F7Madd11+/E 
                     Making love with his ego, 
G  A                       G                      F  F7Madd11+/E G*
                       Ziggy sucked up into his mind 
A              G                  F  F7Madd11+/E*
               Like a leper messiah.
          D (barre)                         E
When the kids had killed the man I had to break up the band.

Oh, Ziggy Played... Guit-ar....


(F7Madd11+/E*= Very Simple, when playing a Barred F chord,
 simply lift your first finger off the chord 
rhythmically, while holding down the 'E shape' 
with your other fingers, in an up/down rhythm, 
as you hear in the song)
