Song: Fortune Faded Artist: Red Hot Chili Peppers Album: Greatest Hits Tabbed by: Chris Downs (flea567@hotmail.co.uk) I don't know why but the main riff to this great song is always tabbed out with harder intervals between frets than what is necessary.

You can just play around with feedback however to recreate that whoosing noise.
