G G                         Bm Bm  
Ziggy played guitar, jamming good
C C D D
with Wierd and Gilly and the Spiders from Mars.

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

G G Bm Bm
Ziggy really sang, with screwed up eyes and
C C D D
screwed down hairdo like some cat from Japan.

G G Bm Bm
He could lick 'em by smiling, he could leave 'em to hang.
C C D D
He came on so loaded man, well hung and snow-white tan.

A A G G F F F F* F F F F* F F F F* F F G G
But where were the spiders,
A A G G F F F F* F F F F* F F F F* F F G G
while the fly tried to break our balls.
A A G G F F F F* F F F F* F F F F* F F
Just the beer light to guide us.

G G D D
And so we bitched about his fans and should we crush his sweet hands.

[power section]X2

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

A A G G F F F F* F F F F* F F F F* F F G G
Making love with his ego,
A A G G F F F F* F F F F* F F F F* F F G G
Ziggy sucked up into his mind
A A G G F F F F* F F F F* F F F F* F F G G
Like a leper messiah.

G G D D
When the kids had killed the man I had to break up the band.

About this song: Ziggy Stardust

Pivotal song on "The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars" (1972) which tells the central story of Ziggy Stardust's rise and fall. It was recorded in November 1971 at London's Trident Studios. "My records were selling and I was being a man in demand. I thought of Vince Taylor and wrote "Ziggy Stardust" - Bowie (1976). Special recordings of this song were broadcast on the Sounds of the Seventies (January 1972) and on Top Gear (May 1972).
