  Hang On To Yourself

  	(words & music by David Bowie)

  

  

  This song is featured off of Bowie~s -The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust

  and the Spiders From Mars- album.  It is quite simple and fun to play as

  are most of Bowie~s songs.  Before I write down the chords, I must explain

  that the chords G5* and B5* are played respectively:

  

    G5*

  

  E --3-3--3-3--3-3--3-3--3-3-3-

  B --3-3--3-3--3-3--3-3--3-3-3-  (of course, it would be auspicious to

  G --0-0--0-0--0-0--0-0--0-0-0-   accent the bass notes to give it that

  D --0-0--0-0--0-0--0-0--0-0-0-   cool song that the song cannot live 

  A --x-x--x-x--x-x--x-x--x-x-x-   without.  -h- stands for hammer-on)

  E --2h3--3-3--2h3--3-3--2h3-3-

  

  

    B5*

  

  E ----------------------------

  B ----------------------------

  G --4-4--4-4--4-4--4-4--4-4-4-  (this time instead of hammering on, it

  D --4-4--4-4--4-4--4-4--4-4-4-   would be better to slide from the first

  A --1s2--2-2--1s2--2-2--1s2-2-   fret to the second playing B5*)

  E ----------------------------

  

  

  The song with the chords are:

  

  D-C-G5*

  D-C-G5*

  

                F#m                             A

  Well she is a tongue twisting storm, she will come to the show tonight

  Bm                      F#5-A5-B5*

  Praying to the light machine

               F#m                        A

  She wants my honey not my money she~s a funky-thigh collector

  Bm                   F#5-A5-B5*

  Laying on electric dreams

  

          C        D         C                       D

  So come on, come on, we~ve really got a good thing going

            C        D          C               

  Well come on, come on, if you think we~re gonna make it

      A                         

  You better hang on to yourself

  

  

  D-C-G5*

  D-C-G5*

  

  

           F#m                                A

  We can~t dance, we don~t talk much, we just ball and play

              Bm                        F#5-A5-B5*

  But then we move like tigers on vaseline

           F#m                          A

  Well the bitter comes out better on a stolen guitar

             Bm                              F#5-A5-B5*   

  You~re the blessed, we~re the spiders from Mars

  

  

          C        D         C                       D

  So come on, come on, we~ve really got a good thing going

            C        D          C               

  Well come on, come on, if you think we~re gonna make it

      A                         

  You better hang on to yourself
