(with variations)
second verse more or less the same as the first, different fills, thats all. really its
to mess around and improvise. the only thing to note is that awesome bend before iggy
singing. thats an A on the B string, bent up to a B, then released. that bend gets me
time.
Solo
the bass messes around that the notes of its verse riff. guitar solos around those
in the fills in the verse. the sort of scale is something like:
|---------------------8-10-12-|
|----------------8-10---------|
|----------5-7-9--------------|
|------5-7--------------------|
|--5-7------------------------|
|-----------------------------|
with loads of bends
rest of the song is much the same, with simple variatons on previous riffs, and so on.
chorus chords have a wah on them after the solo.
dead easy song, but sounds really awesome. Ron Asheton won't play this song with the
he's played with since the stooges, cos he looves the version thats on the record so much.
a very easy song to learn and has loads of room for progression in it, making it ace
the chord changes in the chorus are slow ones, and you've got the bass backing
up, so its good for people learning barre chords as well i guess.
