ok, this is a weird tone to get on the guitar but i'm somewhat sure
this is how it goes, mmkay... the weird chord at the beginning is just
2 or 3 strings but they're all in the key of A. mmkay? mmkay..

        
        Slight bends         quick slides
e-------------8b~~~----10s8-s-10s8-s-10s8-s-10s8-s-10-------------
B-------------8b~~~----10s8-s-10s8-s-10s8-s-10s8-s-10-------------

   /\

                                /\
                             rapid downward strokes

and then this is where the lyrics come in

There's another tab on this site that has the verse part here, and its
probly more correct than mine. check that one out too.

       again, rapid and downward strums.

here's the scale for the solos. if there's any beginners out there this
is what we like to call a "pentatonic scale." and if you "learn" this
"scale" you will be able to "solo" like a "pro." ok enough of that.
this is for keys like D and A and the like..

e----0-----3-----5-----8-----10-----12-----15------------------------
B----1-----3-----5-----8-----10-----13-----15------------------------
G----0-----2-----5-----7------9-----12-----14------------------------
D----0-----2-----5-----7-----10-----12-----14------------------------
A----0-----3-----5-----7-----10-----12-----15------------------------
E----0-----3-----5-----8-----10-----12-----15------------------------

word yo.... 
for the outro John Frusciante (or however you spell that) does this 
thing:

e-------------8~~~---------17-17-17-17s15-15-15-15~~--------------->
B-------------8~~~---------17-17-17-17s15-15-15-15~~--------------->
G------------------------------------------------------------------>
D--7-7-7-7--------------------------------------------------------->
A--0-0-0-0----------0-0-------------------------------------------->
E------------------------------------------------------------------>

e--------------------------------------------10-9b--8~~~--------------
B---------------------------------------------------------------------
G------5-6--7~~~-------5-6---7~~~~------------------------------------
D---------------------------------------------------------------------
A--0--------------0------------------0--------------------------------
E---------------------------------------------------------------------

then that really cool sounding rock ending goes like this:

chords: A        D Db C  C
e--------------------------------------r---------------------------
B---------------7-7-6-5--5~~~--x-x-----e---------------------------
G---------------7-7-6-5--5~~~--x-x-----p---------------------------
D---7-7-7--7----7-7-6-5--5~~~--x-x-----e---------------------------
A---0-0-0--0---------------------------a---------------------------
E--------------------------------------t---------------------------
           scratch

that's all folks. comments and suggestions always welcome.
