Iggy Pop is a genius and this song sounds just as good today as it did 30 years ago!! Easy to play too, just a few powerchords. What makes it sound so cool is that the low E string is always played open throughout the song. Enjoy!!

I call these variatons RIFF 2 and RIFF 3. The timing is kinda strange in them (especially RIFF 3) so I put the numbers '1 2 3 4' under the tab, so you can count and look at the tab and see how the timing is supposed to be. Or you could just listen to the song which is much easier :)] RIFF 2: G* F#* F#* E* E|-------------------------------------------------| B|-------------------------------------------------| G|-------------------------------------------------| D|-12-12-12-12-11-11-11-11-11-11-11-9--9--9--9--9--| A|-10-10-10-10-9--9--9--9--9--9--9--7--7--7--7--7--| E|-0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--| 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 RIFF 3: G* E* D* B* C* E|-------------------------------------------------------------------- B|-------------------------------------------------------------------- G|-------------------------------------------------------------------- D|-12-12-12-9---9-9-9-7-7-7-4---4-4-4-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5- A|-10-10-10-7---7-7-7-5-5-5-2---2-2-2-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3- G|-0--0--0--0---0-0-0-0-0-0-0---0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0- 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 E* E-----------------------------------| B-----------------------------------| G-----------------------------------| D--9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9--| A--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7--| E--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0--| 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 CHORUS: ------- [Play RIFF 2] Now I wanna be your dog [Play RIFF 2] Now I wanna be your dog [Play RIFF 2] Now I wanna be your dog [Play RIFF 3] Well, come on [Play RIFF 1 four times] VERSE 2: [Play RIFF 1] -------- Now I'm ready to close my eyes Now I'm ready to close my mind Now I'm ready to feel the hand To lose my heart in the burnin' sand CHORUS: ------- [Play RIFF 2] Now I wanna be your dog [Play RIFF 2] Now I wanna be your dog [Play RIFF 2] Now I wanna be your dog [Play RIFF 3] Come on OUTRO: ------ Just play RIFF 1 and fade.
