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 ----------------------------
