Hi, this is my first tab, and I have noticed on the net that there is no other
version (at least to my knowledge and I have looked around)of this phenomenal
and beautiful song on the net except with the capo on the 4th fret. What about
us people who don't have a capo? I think there is a great number of us on the net,
and I have tried to help them and myself in tabbing this great song.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
BREAKING THE GIRL
Standard Tuning, EBGDAE.
Bearing in mind that this is my first tab, I am totally open to all corrections,
suggestions and the like.
With that having been said, let's do it:
Chords Used:
A: x02220
G: 320033
D: xx0232
C: x32010
F: x33211
Am: x02210
E: x22100
INTRO (strummed lightly):
A, G, D, A x2
Kiedis begins:
I am a man cut from the know
Rarely do friends come and then go
She was a girl, soft but estranged
We were the two our lives rearranged
Feeling so good that day
A feeling of love that day...
CHORUS:
Twisting and turning your feelings are burning
You're breaking the girl
She meant you no harm
Think you're so clever but now you must sever
You're breaking the girl
He loves no one else
Verse 2 follows, with the same chords as verse one, and then another chorus comes in.
After the chorus, there's the "solo" part which is played:
Am - G x8 (strummed strongly)
Then repeat chorus and that's it.
Any comments?
