Breaking The Girl Chords by Red Hot Chili Peppers From: Petar Piletich (al_perrah@yahoo.com) Subject: Breaking the Girl Album: Blood Sex Sugar Magik, 1991 Artist: Red Hot Chilli Peppers Hi, this is my first tab, and I have noticed on the net that there is no other version (at least to my knowledge and I have looked around)of this phenomenal and beautiful song on the net except with the capo on the 4th fret. What about us people who don't have a capo? I think there is a great number of us on the net, and I have tried to help them and myself in tabbing this great song. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- BREAKING THE GIRL Standard Tuning, EBGDAE. Bearing in mind that this is my first tab, I am totally open to all corrections, suggestions and the like. With that having been said, let's do it: Chords Used: A: x02220 G: 320033 D: xx0232 C: x32010 F: x33211 Am: x02210 E: x22100 INTRO (strummed lightly): A, G, D, A x2 Kiedis begins: A G D A I am a man cut from the know Rarely do friends come and then go She was a girl, soft but estranged A G D A We were the two our lives rearranged C G A Feeling so good that day C G F A feeling of love that day... CHORUS: Am G C D Twisting and turning your feelings are burning E You're breaking the girl Am G C D F She meant you no harm Am G C D Think you're so clever but now you must sever E You're breaking the girl Am G C D F He loves no one else Verse 2 follows, with the same chords as verse one, and then another chorus comes in. After the chorus, there's the "solo" part which is played: Am - G x8 (strummed strongly) Then repeat chorus and that's it. Any comments? Send them to al_perrah@yahoo.com
