Intro (Bowie)-------------
Bowie's original intro is pretty simple, but very nice on 12-string.

[G]Ziggy played guitar, [Bm/F#]jamming good with Wierd and [C/G]Gilly,
And the spiders from M[D]ars. He played it left h[G]and, but made it to [Em]far,
Became the sp[A]ecial man, then we were Z[C/G]iggy's band.
[G]Ziggy really sang, s[Bm/F#]crewed up eyes and screwed down [C/G]hairdo
Like som cat from J[D]apan, he could lick'em by s[G]miling
He could leave'em to h[Em]ang
Came on so lo[A]aded man, well hung and s[C/G]now-white tan.
#(In chorus use barre-chords, and play at the F-chord alternating F and F/E)#
[Am]So w[G]here were the s[F]piders w[Am]hile the f[G]ly tried to b[F]reak our balls
[Am]Just the b[G]eer light to g[F]uide us,
So we b[D]itched about his fans and should we c[E]rush his sweet hands?

[G]Ziggy played for time, j[Bm/F#]iving us that we were v[C/G]oodoo
The kids was just c[D]rass, he was the n[G]azzWith God given [Em]ass
He took it a[A]ll too far, but boy could he p[C/G]lay guitar.
[Am]Making l[G]ove with his [F]ego Z[Am]iggy s[G]ucked up i[F]nto his mind
[Am]Like a l[G]eper me[F]ssiah
When the k[D]ids had killed the man I had to b[E]reak up the band.
{comment:Intro x 4 (with some "oh yeah" and "uuuhh"...)}
[C]Ziggy played guita[G]r
