I can’t believe no one has submitted a live tab for this!
There are 3 ways to play the verse, version 1 is written in
the song, 2 and 3 are in the middle section of this tab.
Thanks to OneEyedMan and Zepman.
Standard tuning (E-A-D-G-B-E)
h = hammer on p = pull-off
U = upstroke D = downstroke
/ = slide ~ = vibrato

I watched Frusciante doing the verse on the live version and he does full up & down
strokes, instead of picking the notes as fast as he can and making his hand tired.
SO instead of picking the notes as fast as YOU can and making your hand tired,
try this, this is the way I play it and it sounds much better (at least I think it
does).I think it makes the sound a bit fuller & richer and also more like the way
he plays it. Basically you’re just palm muting all the strings that you don’t want to play.
This is just a suggestion, if you don't want to play it like this then just skip this
little section, but I'm tellin' ya, once you get it it's easier. It might just take some
getting used to.

Also, here is another way to play it. It doesn't matter which of the 3 ways you choose
to play the verse, just whichever one you prefer.
