G Bm C (barred, slide up) C# D
Ziggy played guitar... jamming good, with Weird and Gilly and the Spiders from Mars
G Em A C
He played it left hand, but made it too far, became the special man, and we were Ziggy's band
G Bm C (barred, slide up) C# D
Ziggy really sang, with screwed up eyes and 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(Bar) G F Fmaj/E G A G F Fmaj/E G
So where were the spi-ders, while the fly tried to break our balls
A G F Fmaj/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.
[Instrumental x2 ]
G Bm C (barred, slide up) C# D
Ziggy played for time, jiving us that we were voodoo and the kids were just crass
G Em A C
He was the nazz with God-given ass. He took it all too far but boy could he play guitar.
A(Bar) G F Fmaj/E G A G F Fmaj/E G A
Making love with his ego, Ziggy sucked up into his mind
G F Fmaj/E D (barre) E
Like a leper messiah. When the kids had killed the man I had to break up the band
[Instrumental x4]
Cadd9 G
Oh, Ziggy Played... Guit-ar....
