Iggy Pop/The Stooges Tab and Lyric Request Thread

Pinapple Express:
I know it's been a while since we looked at Eggs on a plate. Anyway....
Think the tab I wrote a while ago sounds somewhat similar to what it should. If only I was
a better guitar player, I would know.
How does the tab sound for you?
Please tell me tell if it sounds right or what is missing...

Re: Consolation Prizes -

There are two different versions of this song - the one we all know from Kill City and the one on Original Punks. The O.P. version has a slightly different set of lyrics but is easier to understand. I'm using the O.P. version to give you my version of the lyrics. By the way, I recently figured this song out on guitar. It's quite easy once you realize that he's tuned to an open E chord.



You're a sweet daddy on the boulevard
Look out that boy's no ???
He'll break your nose and steal your car

And it’s the consolation prizes, (consolation prizes)
That’s all that’s keeping you alive

Well, that's a weapon ???
Below her tit
Well, I think I get the message, mama
This is no time to quit

And it’s consolation prizes, (consolation prizes)
That’s all that’s keeping you alive

Honey what you don’t know
It won't hurt you too bad
You never seen no real money
You never played the heavy games
All you got's your twelve volt brain (brain...)

Cheap magazines won’t let me be (no they won't)
You know I feel so clean
But they’re always digging dirt on me

Through the lonely nights (I'm thinking)
Lonely nights (I'm thinking)
About my sweet, sweet consolation prize

Honey what you don’t know
It won't hurt you too bad
You never seen no real money
You never played the heavy games.
All you got's your blown-out brain (brain…)

Is it a chick or is it a fix
It’s a consolation prize
Is it a fix, man, or is the chicks
Consolation prizes

Is it hot or baby is it a shot
I said it's consolation prizes
Consolation prizes, Consolation prizes

Larry, re O.P. version:

Look out that boy's no mellow?
He'll break your nose and steal your car

Difficult to figure out that one, but may be what he meant to sing? Starts with a "M"..

Well, that's a weapon strapped
Below her tit

I think "strapped" may be correct - assuming I'm correct about the word "weapon".

Mellow (or manners) I'm not so sure about. I actually think it starts with an "N". I used to think he sang "the boys in the alley". Based on that it sort of sounds like he's singing "that boy's no Nellie". I guess that could be a sort of archaic and out of fashion way of saying "that boy's no sissy". I really have no idea. I've listened through headphones several times and can't seem to get any closer than this. Maybe the Kill City remix will shed more light.

Always thought it was, "Well then the boys, you know maybe, will break your nose and steal your car"

Anyone know how to play "Sixteen" on piano?

When I use the letters in lowercase it means the notes are up an octave. Also the letters in capitals sound best if you play them in actual piano chords (I can't do this though haha).

Main riff
B, b, E, e, f, e, d

Chorus
F#, E, d, c, a

That's just the basic tune, no idea about the keyboards on the live ones.

Any ideas for You dont want my name?I play it D G A C...or something like that...

I think you're right but I think its played in flats
