Red Hot Chili Peppers Dosed Off By the Way (2002) Written by A.Kiedis, Flea, C.Smith and J.Frusciante Tabbed by Jimi Guitar 1: John (lead) Guitar 2: Studio rhythm guitar Intro: rythm |-(12)----12----12----12---| |-------12----12----12-----| |-----12----12----12-------| 9 times till |--------------------------| vocals start |--------------------------| |--------------------------| Over this John plays every second time this Riff: |-----------------| |-----------------| |-----------------| |--9-9-12-9-------| |------------14---| |-----------------| variation, every 4th time |--------------------| |--------------------| |--------------------| |--9-9-12-9-14-------| |---------------14---| |--------------------| Sounds a bit complicated but he plays the first riff 9 times and every 2nd time John Frusciante lays the 2nd riff over it. The 4th time, when Johns riff would be played, he plays the next riff instead. Got it? (Problems: scaredCrow@gmx.net) Verse: The first riff is always played. John plays: |----------------| |--15-13-12------| |-----------12---| 3 times |----------------| |----------------| |----------------| When Anthony Kiedis sings "Take it away I never had it anyway..." John plays always this riff (everytime something with "take it away" or "lay on" is sung): |--15-14-12-10-12------| |-----------------12---| |----------------------| 2 times |----------------------| |----------------------| |----------------------| Fill: After the 1st verse theres a little Fill without vocals. The second Intro riffs played two times over the first one which is played 5 times (After the last time the vocalsstartagain). Verse: |----------------| |--15-13-12------| |-----------12---| 3 times |----------------| |----------------| |----------------| "In you a star is born..." and |--15-14-12-10-12------| |-----------------12---| |----------------------| 2 times |----------------------| |----------------------| |----------------------| "Lay on, lay on, lay on..." Chorus: with the chords G D Em C "Way upon the mountain where she died..." Chorus Fill 1 (something like this; just try to perfect it): |-------------------| |--15-14-12-14-10---| the Fills are always |-------------------| played between the |-------------------| vocals |-------------------| |-------------------| "all I ever wanted was your life" |-------------| |-------------| |--9-9-12-9---| |-------------| |-------------| |-------------| "deep inside the canyon I cant hide" |----------------| |----------------| |--15-14-12-14---| |----------------| |----------------| |----------------| "all I ever wanted was your life" Verse: same Chorus: same Bass bridge Verse: Only the two guitars play the first verse, then the bass and drums come in. Instead of the "lay on" or "take it away" part theres another bridge, right into the chorus, played by bass. Chorus: same Solo: John uses a pretty soft distortion Great feeling |-----------------------------------------------| |--15p13-15p13-15p13-15p13-15p13-10-10--10-10---| |-----------------------------------------------| repeat |-----------------------------------------------| |-----------------------------------------------| |-----------------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------------------| |--11-6-5-6-5-10-10--6-7-6-7-6-7-6-10-10--11-10-10---| |--------------------7-7-7-7-7-7-7-------------------| |----------------------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------| |--15p13-15p13-15p13-15p13-15p13-10-10--11-10-10---| |--------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------| |-----------------------------1210------| |--6-5-6-5-10-5-5-10-10-15-13-------10---| |----------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------|
