Otherside Live - Red Hot Chili Peppers
Tabbed by: K3VN
Email: k3vn_rokz@yahoo.com
This version I tabbed is from when the Red hot chili Peppers played in Hyde Park.
I think it is correct, if not close enough. This song is pretty simple and easy.
This was the first song I learned how to play. This is also my first tab so
please comment and enjoy!
Tuning: EADGBe
Light distortion or clean if preferred for this part.
Also listen to the song to get the strumming right.

Lyrics:
I heard your voice through a photograph
I thought it up; it brought up the past
Once you know you can never go back
I've got to take it on the otherside
Centuries are what it meant to me
A cemetery where I marry the sea
Stranger things could never change my mind
I gotta take it on the otherside
Take it on the otherside
Take it on
Yeah take it on

Lyrics:
Pour my life into a paper cup
The ashtray's full and I'm spillin' my guts
She wants to know am I still a slut
I've got to take it on the otherside
A scarlet starlet and she's in my bed
A candidate for my soul mate bled
I push the trigger and I pull the thread
I've got to take it on the otherside
Take it on the otherside
Take it on
Yeah take it on

Lyrics:
Turn me on, take me for a hard ride
Burn me out, leave me on the otherside
I yell and tell it that It's not my friend
I tear it down, I tear it down
And then it's born again

Lyrics:
How long, how long will I slide
Separate my side, she said; I don't,
I don't believe it's bad
Slittin' my throat
it's all I ever had (how long)
I don't,
I don't believe it's fair
Slittin' my throat
it's all I ever...
