From: Winston Campbell <jieuryli@eden.rutgers.edu> 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*
Well she is a F#mtongue twisting storm, she will Acome to the show tonight Bm F#5-A5-B5* Praying to the light machine She wants my F#mhoney not my money she~s a Afunky-thigh collector Bm F#5-A5-B5* Laying on electric dreams
So come Con, come Don, we~ve Creally got a good thing Dgoing Well come Con, come Don, if you Cthink we~re gonna make it You Abetter hang on to yourself
D-C-G5* D-C-G5*
We can~t F#mdance, we don~t talk much, we just Aball and play Bm F#5-A5-B5* But then we move like tigers on vaseline Well the F#mbitter comes out better on a Astolen guitar Bm F#5-A5-B5* You~re the blessed, we~re the spiders from Mars
So come Con, come Don, we~ve Creally got a good thing Dgoing Well come Con, come Don, if you Cthink we~re gonna make it You Abetter hang on to yourself
D-C-G5* D-C-G5* Solo Chords: A D A D
So come Con, come Don, we~ve Creally got a good thing Dgoing Well come Con, come Don, if you Cthink we~re gonna make it You Abetter hang on to yourself
