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
