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.
