Search And Destroy


Band: The Stooges Song: Search and Destroy Album: Raw Power Year: 1973 Yes, I'm aware that the band was called Iggy & The Stooges when this was recorded, but I don't see the point of splitting up tabs between the two band names when they were essentially the same band. e|-----------------------------------| B|-----------------------------------| G|-10—-10--10-10-10-11—-11-11-10-10--|
