TRANSCENDING
-Red Hot Chili Peppers-
Lyrics & Music: Anthony Kiedis, Flea, Dave Navarro, Chad Smith
From The Album: One Hot Minute (1995)
Tabbed by Linus Olsson (Linuso@hotmail.com)
I searched through the net and saw that there was no guitar tab on my favourite RHCP song
"Transcending", so here goes!
Tab key:
/ = Quick slide up
\ = Quick slide down
XbY = Bend note X to make it sound like note Y
r = Release bend
h = Hammer on
() = Very faint note (ghost note)
x = Muted string
~ = Vibrate note using the twang bar
s = A very slow slide made by moving the twang bar straight down/up
MAIN RIFF:
==========
This riff plays on the verses and the refrain.

NOTES:
I believe this tab to be accurate, although a few notes might be wrong (especially in the
ending). If you find a more correct solution, then mail me. Also, I haven't written the
timing in this tab, so play along with the CD to get the rythm.
TECHNICAL INFORMATION:
I think Dave Navarro uses a clean guitar sound with no distortion and a delay effect added.
You can hear the delay effect very clearly on the guitar fill and the bridge. Near the
ending he uses some sort of a waah-waah effect.
Enjoy!
