[G#]
[A#] [Fm] The ghost of Ziggy Stardust [F#] returns to Europe.
[N] I saw Ziggy on stage and it looked like,
it looked like he was dead, it looked like a tribute,
like someone else was playing the part.
Oh yes, very much.
I get occasional flashes of what he used to be like,
but it's
the actual performance is a little more perfunctory, I think, than it ever was before.
So what's happening
Absoluto 4, bitte!
