Red Hot Chili Peppers - The Adventures Of Rain Dance Maggie Chords & Tabs

Ryan Capozzi - xsoccerfreakshow@aim.com [1st Tabbing on UG!]


This is my own interpretation of The Adventures Of Rain Dance Maggie.

This is in no way exact, I just like the way it sounds as compared to the others.

Pay attention to the arrows, the side notes are important (:


I think it's more complex than Em to C because I'm personally hearing emphasis being put on the B

[Bm], so I use an E5 along with the Em. Also, on the second line/half of each
verse, I believe it needs

to dip down to Em from somewhere instead of go back to C. It just didn't quite
sound right, but then

again, I'm not Josh Klinghoffer.



E5          [Here's E5, because I know that I certainly didn't have that memorized..]
E - 0
A - 0
D - 2
G - 4
B - 0
e - 0



E5                 C            Em
Lipstick junkie be funky all he wanty    <--- Go with this pattern throughout the song,
E5                      Em             the lyrics aren't in order, but everything should flow.
she came back wearing a smile
E5                              C          Em
Look-alike someone drug me, they wanted to unplug me
E5                   Em
No one in here is on trial
Em
Its just a turn-around      <--- Last line of each verse is played in Em at whatever pace desired.

E5
And we go
Em
Oh
E5
well and we go
Em
Oh oh oh oh

E5                 C                 Em
Tic-toc, I want to rock you like the 80s
E5                  Em
Cock-blocking isn't allowed.
Tug boat sheila is into memorabilia
Who said three is a crowd?
We better get it on the go

One last note is that you should try bending the 17th fret on the high-e string
and sliding back to 15 and 12 with the chords. It sounds beautiful
