This Velvet Glove - Red Hot Chili Peppers
I found Bo Weevil\'s tab on OLGA and tried to fix the (very few) mistakes and add the missing parts. Here\'s the result. Any suggestions: barleycorn@infinito.it Enjoy! Stefano
Lyrics & Chords ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ [an acoustic guitar strums chords all over the song; use a capo on the 5th fret, so that you\'ll play Am, G, F, Em, D instead of Dm, C, Bb, Am, G; see tabs for lead part details]
|: Dm C | Bb :| 4 times, with fill 1
Close to my skin I\'m falling in someone who\'s been \\ Sittin\' by the phone I\'m left alone in another zone | Dm C Bb John says to live above hell, my will is well | 8 times No one is waiting for me to fail, my will could sail, yeah. /
|: Dm C | Bb :| 4 times, with fill 1 (and some slight variations)
It\'s such a waste to be wasted in the first place \\ I want to taste the taste of being face to face with common grace | Dm C Bb To meditate on the warmest dream | 4 times And when I walk alone I listen to our secret theme. /
Your solar eyes are like nothing I have ever seen \\ Dm Am Somebody close that can see right through | 3 times then I\'d take a fall and you know that I\'d do anything, I will for you. / G Am
|: Dm C | Bb :| 2 times, with fill 2
Sailin\' for the sun \'cause there is no one knows where I\'m from \\ I care for you, I really do, I really do | Dm C Bb Come closer now so you can lie right by my side | 8 times Sit alone in the sun I wrote a letter to you getting over myself /
| Am | Am | Am | Am C | with fill 4
Your solar eyes are like nothing I have ever seen \\ Dm Am Somebody close that can see right through | 3 times then I\'d take a fall and you know that I\'d do anything, I will for you. / G Am
Your solar eyes are like nothing I have ever seen \\ Dm Am Somebody close that was made for you | 3 times then I\'d take a fall and you know that I\'d do anything, I will for you. / G Am
|: Dm C | Bb :| 2 times, with fill 3
Close to my skin someone who\'s been I\'m a falling in \\ Disasters are just another star falling in my yard | Dm C Bb John says to live above hell, my will is well | 8 times Long to be with someone to tell \"I love your smell\" /
Verse: ^^^^^ during the verse, lead guitar plays now and then only one note and one chord (strummed with left hand muting): The note is an A, B string 10th fret. The chord is a C, 12th fret: x-x-x-12-13-12.
Chorus: ^^^^^^ strum this figure; in each bar just alternate the two positions putting your pinky finger on ad off the string.
