This song is a lot less funky than some of RHCP's harder songs but It's 
still really good. 

This TAB transcription was created using TAB MASTER version 1.0
It makes tabbing songs a whole lot easier. If you want to you can 
download it through the OLGA resources\tab utilities it is called tablat.

P.S. I'm not sure about the F6 Chord in the chorus so if you find 
something that works better E-mail me at .

Lyrics:

My friends are so depressed
I feel the question
Of your loneliness
Confide... cause I'll be on your side
You know I will, you know I will      
 
X Girlfriend called me up
Alone and desperate
On the prison phone
They want... to give her 7 years
For being sad

Chorus :
I love all of you
Hurt by the cold
So hard and lonely too
When you don't know yourself

My friends are so distressed
And standing on
The brink of emptiness
No words... I know of to express
This emptiness

Chorus :
Imagine me taught by tragedy
Release is peace
I heard a little girl
And what she said
Was something beautiful
To give... your love
No matter what
