Artist:red hot chili peppers Song:true men don't kill coyotes Instrument:bass Tuning:standard(gdae) I've got the accurate intro, which takes a lot of practice to perfect, but you'll get there. The other tabs were quite sweet so i decided to do my own. intro/outro: s p s p s p p p p pp p p p g--------9-----7~-----0--0--2-2--- d----9-------9------0---0-------2 a--7--x7--x7-------------------------------- e-(0)------------------------------------------- you can play the last open notes and the 2s(G and A) on the A and D string if you want, but if you listen to the CD, they are clearly popped not slapped. The part where an E is played, is played very fast. Listen to the record for timing. The last note played in the riff is a very short, stubby note. verses (verse riff 1) g--------------------------- d--2---2-2-----(2)------ a--------------------------- e----0------0~-----0-3b. repeat without the high E note until g----------------------------------------- d---------------------------------------- e--2-x-22-(0)-2-0--2-x-22-0-2/5 a----------------------------------------- then play the first verse riff again only playing the high E notes on the first time and slide up to them from the first fret. Chorus g--------------------------------------------------------- d--------------------------------------------------------- a-2-0-2-0-20-2-0-2-0-20-2/5-3-5-3-53-(7) e--------------------------------------------------------- repeat these till the end of the song,fairly monotonous. you'd think there'd be variations but i checked and they consist only of open E notes being replaced by slap mutes.
