RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS - "my friends4" Tablature

"My Friends" by the Red Hot Chili Peppers
Transcribed by Alex Hudson

Not many people seem to realize it, but the song My Friends has two guitars. This is transcribed so that one guitar can play it. Also, since I play alone, not with a band, I sometimes strum though a bit more that one normally would due to the lack of backing.


Verse
In the second bar he plays it differently, but I don't bother with that. When the song is played live, Navarro doesn't change the second bar and neither do I.The second bar sounds bad without two guitars

Chorus
It sounds good with G's in place of the Cmaj7's, but Cmaj7 is the correct chord.
C Cmaj7 Asus2
I love all of you
C D Asus2
Hurt by the cold
C Cmaj7 Asus2
So hard and lonely too
C D Asus2
When you don't know yourself


Bridge
Don't worry, these chords aren't as hard as they sound
E G6 F#7add4 Fmaj7#11
Imagine me taught by tragedy
C Bsus4 F (into final verse)
Release is peace


For the final verse, I always strum though all the chords, since it sounds more powerful.
The chords for the verse : Dsus2 - Dmadd9 - G - Cadd9
