G - Bm C1. Ziggy played guitar, jamming good with Wierd and Gilly, D and the spiders 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 C2. Ziggy really sang, screwed up eyes and screwed down hairdo, D like some cat from Japan. 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. Am G F -G-Am G FSo where were the spiders, while the fly tried to break our balls,
G-Am G Fjust the beer light to guide us.
D E So we bitched about his fans, and should we crush his sweet hands? G – D - C - Em – D (2x)
G Bm C3. Ziggy played for time, jiving us that we were voodoo, D 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. Am G F - G - Am G F Making love with his ego, Ziggy sucked up into his mind,G - Am G F like a leper messiah.
D E When the kids had killed the man I had to break up the band. G – D - C - Em – D G – D - C - Em – D G – D - C - Em – D G – D – C GOh yeah ! Ooh! Ziggy played guitar.
