Song:By the Way
Artist:Red Hot Chili Peppers
Tabbed by: SquierFreak aka Shane Pitchford

Yah, this is the chili peppers awesome new song...  most of it is stuff i compiled
from other tabs for this song that weren't quite right, and some stuff i figured out,
but altogether i thinks its pretty much exactly right.  Its only the Intro type riff
thats used throughout and the chorus riff, because the rest is so tricked out with
FX that i'm not gonna even bother.

Intro/Verse type riff
e|-------------------------|-------------------------|
B|-------------------------|-------------------------|
G|-------------------------|-------------------------|
D|-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-|-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-|
A|-8--8--8--8--8--8--8--8--|-7--7--7--7--7--7--7--7--|
E|-------------------------|-------------------------|
                                      (*)
e|-------------------------|---------------------------|
B|-------------------------|---------------------------|
G|-------------------------|---------------------------|
D|-2--2--2--2--2--2--2--2--|-2--2--2--2--2--2--2--2s10-|
A|-0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--|-0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0s8--|
E|-------------------------|---------------------------|
Fill 1:                      Fill 2: (I think this is bass coming in, but it sounds good if you emphasize it a lot)
e|-------------------------|-------------|
B|-------------------------|-------------|
G|-------------------------|-------------|

A|-------------------------|-------------|
E|-------------------------|-------------|

Play it once through normal for the intro, then the 2nd time around stop at the (*)
and play fill 1.  Then the next time around in the beginning, if you want, add
fill 2.

The chorus is just these chords, i dont know the strumming pattern, but its fast.


  F   C   Dm      F   C   Am  A#
e|-1-|-0-|-1-|-1-|-1-|-0-|-0-|-1-|
B|-1-|-1-|-3-|-3-|-1-|-1-|-1-|-3-| then when played at the end, just end with
G|-2-|-0-|-2-|-2-|-2-|-0-|-2-|-3-| a Dm 
D|-3-|-2-|-0-|-0-|-3-|-2-|-2-|-3-|
A|-3-|-3-|---|---|-3-|-3-|---|-1-|
E|-1-|---|---|---|-1-|---|---|---|
