"Time" by the Red Hot Chili Peppers (it's not a cover of the many other songs called
Time, it's a b-side.)
Bass part by Michael Balzary (Flea)
Tabbed by Dan Bogosian (UtBDan)

NOTE: This was tabbed from a live bootleg recording of it. It is originally a B-side to
the single "By the way", and on the Japanese version of the album. So I guess TECHNICALLY
it's the live version, but I'm betting it doesn't truly matter that much.

You can improv at the end of each line. Flea's specialty. :)
