This is my Tab for "I Could Die for You" from the Red Hot Chili Peppers
Album By The Way.
Since I bought the album, I haven't stopped listening to it. It is easily
their most accomplished work to date.
John Frusciante still proving why he is one of the best guitarists out there
at the moment. This is only my
interpretation of the song, so as always; I am open to your opinions of it.
I you think it rocks, e-mail me.
If you think it can be improved, e-mail me. However, as this is only my
second submission to OLGA, my explanations
may be slightly difficult and if so, I apologise. Anyway, enough from me.
Enjoy the song. P.S.
thanks to OLGA for being the best tab site around. SlatZ...
